P00 vs T50
P00 (Newborn affected by maternal conditions that may be unrelated to present pregnancy) compared with T50 (Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of diuretics and other and unspecified drugs, medicaments and biological substances), from the official CMS tabular data. Both may be reported when both conditions are documented (Excludes2).
Can these codes be reported together?
Yes, when both are documented. T50 carries an Excludes2 note covering P00: “drug reaction and poisoning affecting newborn (P00-P96)”
Excludes2 marks distinct conditions — both may be reported when both are documented.
