I'm wondering if there is a good resource for educating providers on diagnosing /reporting depression and ADD/ADHD I'm guessing that because the 2 conditions overlap is symptoms is why there is an exclude 1 note However when providers asked what they should report I'm at a loss

I see an Excludes 2 note under F90 for mood [affective] disorders F30-F39. However, I'm not seeing an Excludes 1 note between F90.- and F32.-

Which code pair are you seeing an Excludes1 for? I just looked in the general categories for depression and ADHD, so perhaps I overlooked the specific code pair you mentioned.
