E08 vs N76.82

E08 (Diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition) compared with N76.82 (Fournier disease of vagina and vulva), from the official CMS tabular data. Do not report these codes together: the official tabular list marks them Excludes1.

Can these codes be reported together?

No — do not report together. N76.82 carries an Excludes1 note covering E08: “gangrene in diabetes mellitus (E08-E13 with .52)”

Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
