T80.3 vs T80.5

T80.3 (ABO incompatibility reaction due to transfusion of blood or blood products) compared with T80.5 (Anaphylactic reaction due to serum), 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. T80.5 carries an Excludes1 note covering T80.3: “ABO incompatibility reaction due to transfusion of blood or blood products (T80.3-)”

Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
