Q67.0 vs Q75
Q67.0 (Congenital facial asymmetry) compared with Q75 (Other congenital malformations of skull and face bones), 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. Q75 carries an Excludes1 note covering Q67.0: “musculoskeletal deformities of head and face (Q67.0-Q67.4)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
