The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
Hyperchloremic acidosis is a disease state where acidosis (pH less than 7.35) develops with an increase in ionic chloride. Understanding the physiological pH buffering system is important. The major pH buffer system in the human body is the bicarbonate/carbon dioxide (HCO3/CO2) chemical equilibrium system.[1][2][3]
P74. 421 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM P74. 421 became effective on October 1, 2021.
ICD-10 code E87. 2 for Acidosis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases .

What is metabolic acidosis? The buildup of acid in the body due to kidney disease or kidney failure is called metabolic acidosis. When your body fluids contain too much acid, it means that your body is either not getting rid of enough acid, is making too much acid, or cannot balance the acid in your body.
There are several types of metabolic acidosis: Diabetic acidosis (also called diabetic ketoacidosis and DKA) develops when substances called ketone bodies (which are acidic) build up during uncontrolled diabetes (usually type 1 diabetes).
Metabolic acidosis develops when too much acid is produced in the body. It can also occur when the kidneys cannot remove enough acid from the body.
Lactic acidosis occurs when lactic acid production exceeds lactic acid clearance. The increase in lactate production is usually caused by impaired tissue oxygenation, either from decreased oxygen delivery or a defect in mitochondrial oxygen utilization. (See "Approach to the adult with metabolic acidosis".)

Lactic acidosis shares the ICD-10-CM code, E87. 2, Acidosis, with other causes of acidosis, respiratory or metabolic.
The facts, however, are quite different. Septic patients with lactic acidosis have elevated global oxygen delivery values compared with normal individuals, and such values are indistinguishable from those of septic patients without lactic acidosis.
ICD-10-CM Code for Elevation of levels of lactic acid dehydrogenase [LDH] R74. 02.
Lactic acidosis develops when there is increased production of lactate, decreased clearance, or a combination of both. The most common cause is the shock state. It can also result from impaired hepatic function, like in cirrhosis, or from regional ischemia, drugs and toxins, or from inborn errors of metabolism.
Hyperlactatemia is a blood level of lactate from 2 to 4 mmol/L. Lactic acidosis is defined as lactate level > 4 mmol/L. There is often acidemia, which means the blood measures acidic (relative to normal pH of 7.4) with a pH < 7.35, but if compensatory mechanisms are not overwhelmed, the pH may be closer to normal.
If the condition indexes under a general term coded at E87.2, like acidosis or acidemia, it is integral to it. Examples are renal tubular acidosis or propionic acidemia. They code to different codes, but they are indexed below E87.2. Genetic disorders of metabolism can have variable manifestations.
Genetic disorders of metabolism can have variable manifestations. If acidemia is part of the name of the condition and the condition is indexed below E87.2, acidosis should be considered inherent. Other inborn errors, however, may have lactic acidosis as a component.
Go to: Recognition and Pathogenesis of the Hyperchloremia and Hypobicarbonatemia of Nongap Acidosis A nongap metabolic acidosis is characterized by a serum anion gap that is unchanged from baseline, or a decrease in serum [HCO3−] that exceeds the rise in the anion gap (5,6).

Increased production of ketone bodies due to: Dehydration (nausea/vomiting, ADH inhibition) leads to increased stress hormone production leading to ketone formation Depleted glycogen stores in the liver (malnutrition/decrease carbohydrate intake) Elevated ratio of NADH/NAD due to ethanol metabolism Increased free fatty acid production Elevated NADH/NAD ratio leads to the predominate production of β–hydroxybutyrate (BHB) over acetoacetate (AcAc) Dehydration Fever absent unless there is an underlying infection Tachycardia (common) due to: Dehydration with associated orthostatic changes Concurrent alcohol withdrawal Tachypnea: Common Deep, rapid, Kussmaul respirations frequently present Nausea and vomiting Abdominal pain (nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain are the most common symptoms): Usually diffuse with nonspecific tenderness Epigastric pain common Rebound tenderness, abdominal distension, hypoactive bowel sounds uncommon Mandates a search for an alternative, coexistent illness Decreased urinary output from hypovolemia Mental status: Minimally altered as a result of hypovolemia and possibly intoxication Altered mental status mandates a search for other associated conditions such as: Head injury, cerebrovascular accident (CVA), or intracranial hemorrhage Hypoglycemia Alcohol withdrawal Encephalopathy Toxins Visual disturbances: Reports of isolated visual disturbances with AKA common History Chronic alcohol use: Recent binge Abrupt cessation Physical Exam Findings of dehydration most common May have ketotic odor Kussmaul respirations Palmar erythema (alcoholism) Lab Acid–base disturbance: Increased anion gap metabolic acidosis hallmark Mixed acid–base disturbance common: Respiratory alkalosis Metabolic alkalosis secondary to vomiting and dehydration Hyperchlorem Continue reading >>.
Publication Date: 2004-05 Fourth quarter ICD 10 AM Edition: Fourth edition Query Number: 2125 30 year old patient with a PDx on discharge summary of metabolic acidosis. Patient is also an IDDM, with a history of a flu like illness for the past week, and noted to be dehydrated on admission. Patient stated BSL readings had been good. LOS 4 days.
If the provider clearly documents that the acidosis is DUE TO renal failure, then the indexes direction to assign 589.89 (Other specified disorders resulting from impaired renal function) is correct. 276.2 would only be assigned for lactic, metabolic, or respiratory acidosis or if the acidosis was not otherwise specified by the provider.
Hypocitraturia, a low amount of citrate in the urine, is an important risk factor for kidney stone formation. Citrate in the urine has long been recognized as an inhibitor of calcium salt crystallization.
