Z30.43 vs Z97.5

Z30.43 (Encounter for surveillance of intrauterine contraceptive device) compared with Z97.5 (Presence of (intrauterine) contraceptive device), 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. Z97.5 carries an Excludes1 note covering Z30.43: “checking, reinsertion or removal of intrauterine contraceptive device (Z30.43-)”

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