V95.19XD (Other ultralight, microlight or powered-glider accident injuring occupant, subsequent encounter) compared with Y36 (Operations of war), 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. V95.19XD carries an Excludes1 note covering Y36: “military aircraft accidents in military or war operations (Y36, Y37)”

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