Billable/Specific Code

D75.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

Type 1 Excludes

Type 1 Excludes Help

A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as D75.1. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

polycythemia neonatorum (
ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code P61.1
Polycythemia neonatorum

ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D45
Polycythemia vera
Type 1 Excludes
