Why ICD-10 codes are important
ICD-10 code: N18. 4 Chronic kidney disease, stage 4.
9.
A person with stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) has advanced kidney damage with a severe decrease in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) to 15-30 ml/min. It is likely someone with stage 4 CKD will need dialysis or a kidney transplant in the near future.
N18. 31- Chronic Kidney Disease- stage 3a. N18. 32- Chronic Kidney Disease- stage 3b.
Coding CKD. Documenting the stage of CKD—not the GFR—is vital for accurate coding. If the stage is not documented, then code 585.9, Chronic kidney disease, is assigned. If a provider documents both a stage of CKD and ESRD, then only the code for ESRD (585.6) is assigned.
ICD-10 code: N18. 5 Chronic kidney disease, stage 5.

The ICD code N18 is used to code Chronic kidney disease. Chronic kidney disease (CKD), also known as chronic renal disease, is progressive loss in kidney function over a period of months or years. The symptoms of worsening kidney function are not specific, and might include feeling generally unwell and experiencing a reduced appetite.
CKD is a long-term form of kidney disease; thus, it is differentiated from acute kidney disease (acute kidney injury) in that the reduction in kidney function must be present for over 3 months. CKD is an internationally recognized public health problem affecting 5–10% of the world population. Specialty:
Often, chronic kidney disease is diagnosed as a result of screening of people known to be at risk of kidney problems, such as those with high blood pressure or diabetes and those with a blood relative with CKD. This disease may also be identified when it leads to one of its recognized complications, such as cardiovascular disease, anemia, ...
This disease may also be identified when it leads to one of its recognized complications, such as cardiovascular disease, anemia, pericarditis or renal osteodystrophy (the latter included in the novel term CKD-MBD). CKD is a long-term form of kidney disease; thus, it is differentiated from acute kidney disease (acute kidney injury) ...
