Hypertensive chronic kidney disease with stage 5 chronic kidney disease or end stage renal disease. I12.0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM I12.0 became effective on October 1, 2018.
This is why high blood pressure (HBP or hypertension) is the second leading cause of kidney failure. Over time, uncontrolled high blood pressure can cause arteries around the kidneys to narrow, weaken or harden. These damaged arteries are not able to deliver enough blood to the kidney tissue. How your kidneys work
Hypertension can cause kidney disease and is an important cause of kidney failure in many countries. High blood pressure can damage blood vessels in the kidneys, reducing their ability to function properly. If the blood vessels in the kidneys are damaged, they may stop removing wastes and extra fluid from the body.
Long term hypertension and diabetes are two major causes of renal failure, therefore more attention should be paid if you have years of high blood pressure or high blood glucose which are not well controlled.

CKD is most likely related to both the HTN and the diabetes when all three conditions are present. High blood pressure and high blood sugar in the blood vessels can lead to the deterioration of the vessels, which can then cause damage to the kidneys.
End Stage Renal Disease ESRD is reported as 585.6 in ICD-9-CM and N18. 6 in ICD-10-CM.

CKD should not be coded as hypertensive if the physician has specifically documented a different cause. The appropriate code from category N18 should be used as a secondary code with a code from category I12 to identify the stage of chronic kidney disease.
