How do you code hypertension with chronic kidney disease?

If chronic kidney disease is documented with hypertension, a combination code from I12 — hypertensive chronic kidney disease — should be reported.

Renal hypertension is caused by a narrowing in the arteries that deliver blood to the kidney. One or both kidneys' arteries may be narrowed. This is a condition called renal artery stenosis. When the kidneys receive low blood flow, they act as if the low flow is due to dehydration.

Is there a causal relationship between hypertension and CKD?

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.
