Excludes1 inherited from the categories above S32.810

These are not written on S32.810, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing S32.810 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on S32 — Fracture of lumbar spine and pelvis

transection of abdomen (S38.3)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above S32.810

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of S32.810, 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 S32.810

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at S32.810. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading S32.810 alone.

M84.3Stress fracture
M84.4Pathological fracture, not elsewhere classified

Risk adjustment

S32.810 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.

How S32.810 is indexed

Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to S32.810.
