Written on T63.82 — Toxic effect of contact with venomous toad

contact with nonvenomous toad (W62.1)

Excludes2 inherited from the categories above T63.822

Also inherited, and the opposite of Excludes1: these conditions are not part of T63.822, but a patient can have both, so you may code both.

Written on T63 — Toxic effect of contact with venomous animals and plants

ingestion of toxic animal or plant (T61.-, T62.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with T63.822
