W00.1XXD vs X80

W00.1XXD (Fall from stairs and steps due to ice and snow, subsequent encounter) compared with X80 (Intentional self-harm by jumping from a high place), 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. W00.1XXD carries an Excludes1 note covering X80: “intentional self-harm involving a fall (X80-X81)”

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