P10.0 vs P10.4
P10.0 (Subdural hemorrhage due to birth injury) compared with P10.4 (Tentorial tear due to birth injury), 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. P10.0 carries an Excludes1 note covering P10.4: “subdural hemorrhage accompanying tentorial tear (P10.4)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
