E25.0 vs E70
E25.0 (Congenital adrenogenital disorders associated with enzyme deficiency) compared with E70 (Disorders of aromatic amino-acid metabolism), 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. E70 carries an Excludes1 note covering E25.0: “congenital adrenal hyperplasia (E25.0)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
