K08.0 vs K08.1
K08.0 (Exfoliation of teeth due to systemic causes) compared with K08.1 (Complete loss of teeth), 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. K08.1 carries an Excludes1 note covering K08.0: “exfoliation of teeth due to systemic causes (K08.0)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
