F10.982 vs G47.53

Summary

What is different?

The conditions named and chapter.F10.982 is “Alcohol use, unspecified with alcohol-induced sleep disorder”; G47.53 is “Recurrent isolated sleep paralysis”. F10.982 sits in F01-F99 — Mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental Disorders (F01-F99); G47.53 in G00-G99 — Diseases of the Nervous System (G00-G99).

Registry fact

Can these codes be reported together?

No.G47.53’s entry carries an Excludes1 note covering F10.982: “alcohol induced parasomnia (F10.182, F10.282, F10.982)”. Both may be reported only when the documentation shows the two conditions are unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).

Official ruleGuide: Excludes1 vs Excludes2

Is there an Excludes1 relationship?

Yes.G47.53’s tabular entry: “alcohol induced parasomnia (F10.182, F10.282, F10.982)”. The note covers F10.982.

Official ruleGuide: Excludes1 vs Excludes2

Is there an Excludes2 relationship?

None.Neither entry carries an Excludes2 note that names the other code. G47.53 carries 4 Excludes2 notes covering other codes; the side-by-side table quotes them.

Official rule

Is one more specific?

Not comparable.The codes sit in different categories; specificity is only comparable within one category.

Is one a parent or header code?

No.Both are billable codes, and neither contains the other.

Registry fact

Are there sequencing instructions?

None.Neither entry carries a Code First or Use Additional Code note that names the other.

Official rule

Are there other coding relationships?

None found.No laterality, encounter-phase, Table of Neoplasms, Table of Drugs and Chemicals, or history-versus-active-disease relationship links these codes.

Official guidance behind these answers

• Section I.A.12.a — Excludes1 · applies to: Excludes1

  A type 1 Excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means “NOT CODED HERE!” An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition. An exception to the Excludes1 definition is the circumstance when the two conditions are unrelated to each other. If it is not clear whether the two conditions involving an Excludes1 note are related or not, query the provider. For example, code F45.8, Other somatoform disorders, has an Excludes1 note for "sleep related teeth grinding (G47.63)," because "teeth grinding" is an inclusion term under F45.8. Only one of these two codes should be assigned for teeth grinding. However psychogenic dysmenorrhea is also an inclusion term under F45.8, and a patient could have both this condition and sleep related teeth grinding. In this case, the two conditions are clearly unrelated to each other, and so it would be appropriate to report F45.8 and G47.63 together.

Side by side

Similar descriptions do not make codes interchangeable. The documentation and the official instructions decide which code applies.

No Code first, Code also and 7th character note at either code.

Notes are the code’s own tabular entry, quoted as published. A note that names the other code is the one the verdict above rests on. In a row that differs, notes every code shares are dimmed.
