N81 vs O34.5
N81 (Female genital prolapse) compared with O34.5 (Maternal care for other abnormalities of gravid uterus), 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. N81 carries an Excludes1 note covering O34.5: “genital prolapse complicating pregnancy, labor or delivery (O34.5-)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
