T80.2 vs T84.7

T80.2 (Infections following infusion, transfusion and therapeutic injection) compared with T84.7 (Infection and inflammatory reaction due to other internal orthopedic prosthetic devices, implants and grafts), 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 T84.7: “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.
