I60.7 vs I67.0
I60.7 (Nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage from unspecified intracranial artery) compared with I67.0 (Dissection of cerebral arteries, nonruptured), 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. I67.0 carries an Excludes1 note covering I60.7: “ruptured cerebral arteries (I60.7)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
