T80.2 vs T83.6

T80.2 (Infections following infusion, transfusion and therapeutic injection) compared with T83.6 (Infection and inflammatory reaction due to prosthetic device, implant and graft in genital tract), 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. T80.2 carries an Excludes2 note covering T83.6: “infections specified as due to prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T82.6-T82.7, T83.5-T83.6, T84.5-T84.7, T85.7)”

Excludes2 marks distinct conditions — both may be reported when both are documented.
