F20 vs F30.2
F20 (Schizophrenia) compared with F30.2 (Manic episode, severe with psychotic symptoms), 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?

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