R14 vs R19.0
R14 (Flatulence and related conditions) compared with R19.0 (Intra-abdominal and pelvic swelling, mass and lump), 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. R19.0 carries an Excludes1 note covering R14: “abdominal distension (gaseous) (R14.-)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
