G56 vs O26.82
G56 (Mononeuropathies of upper limb) compared with O26.82 (Pregnancy related peripheral neuritis), 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. G56 carries an Excludes1 note covering O26.82: “peripheral neuritis in pregnancy (O26.82-)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
