How about new, different instruction than above: | |||
If [[Anoxic Encephalopathy Hanging]] is coded '''do not code [[Hanging]]''' since it is implied. | |||
If agreed the same would need to be updated in [[Anoxic Encephalopathy Hanging]]. | |||

Code with Anoxic Encephalopathy Hanging if applicable
- Would you really still code the hanging separately if you are already coding the specific "Anoxic Encephalopathy Hanging". Seems like a waste of a diagnosis spot. Ttenbergen 15:28, 15 May 2009 (CDT)

How about new, different instruction than above:
If Anoxic Encephalopathy Hanging is coded do not code Hanging since it is implied.
If agreed the same would need to be updated in Anoxic Encephalopathy Hanging.
