P05 vs P07.0
P05 (Disorders of newborn related to slow fetal growth and fetal malnutrition) compared with P07.0 (Extremely low birth weight newborn), 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. P07.0 carries an Excludes1 note covering P05: “low birth weight due to slow fetal growth and fetal malnutrition (P05.-)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
