Excludes1 inherited from the categories above S32.611K

These are not written on S32.611K, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing S32.611K with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on S32.6 Fracture of ischium

  • fracture of ischium with associated disruption of pelvic ring (S32.8-)

Written on S32 Fracture of lumbar spine and pelvis

  • transection of abdomen (S38.3)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above S32.611K

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of S32.611K, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on S32 Fracture of lumbar spine and pelvis

  • fracture of hip NOS (S72.0-)

Other codes that can never be billed with S32.611K

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at S32.611K. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading S32.611K alone.

  • M48.5Collapsed vertebra, not elsewhere classified
  • M84.3Stress fracture
  • M84.4Pathological fracture, not elsewhere classified

Risk adjustment

S32.611K does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

Medicare coverage

S32.611K is named in 10 Medicare coverage policies 10 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
