Explanation:
Patients with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia should be examined for evidence of hemolysis.

The diagnosis of exclusion for unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia is Gilbert’s disease, which is a benign disease of a partial defect in the enzyme uridine diphosphoglucuronyl transferase (UDPGT), characterized by mild, chronic, and intermittent unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia.
