G10 vs I02

G10 (Huntington's disease) compared with I02 (Rheumatic chorea), 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. I02 carries an Excludes1 note covering G10: “Huntington's chorea (G10)”

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