N32.2 vs N82.1
N32.2 (Vesical fistula, not elsewhere classified) compared with N82.1 (Other female urinary-genital tract fistulae), 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. N32.2 carries an Excludes1 note covering N82.1: “fistula between bladder and female genital tract (N82.0-N82.1)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
