T80.1 vs T85.8
T80.1 (Vascular complications following infusion, transfusion and therapeutic injection) compared with T85.8 (Other specified complications of internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, not elsewhere classified), 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. T80.1 carries an Excludes2 note covering T85.8: “vascular complications specified as due to prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T82.8-, T83.8-, T84.8-, T85.8-)”
Excludes2 marks distinct conditions — both may be reported when both are documented.
