E28.3 vs Q96

E28.3 (Primary ovarian failure) compared with Q96 (Turner's syndrome), 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. E28.3 carries an Excludes1 note covering Q96: “Turner's syndrome (Q96.-)”

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