W07.XXXS vs Y01
W07.XXXS (Fall from chair, sequela) compared with Y01 (Assault by pushing from 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. W07.XXXS carries an Excludes1 note covering Y01: “assault involving a fall (Y01-Y02)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
