N18.5 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Chronic kidney disease, stage 5 . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 . ICD-10 code N18.5 is based on the following Tabular structure:
Sinus Congestion: Causes, Symptoms & Support Strategies
These include:
Cough. R05 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM R05 became effective on October 1, 2019. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of R05 - other international versions of ICD-10 R05 may differ.
R09. 82 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
J34. 89 - Other specified disorders of nose and nasal sinuses | ICD-10-CM.
R09. 81 Nasal congestion - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
9: Chronic sinusitis, unspecified.
Background: Septal ulceration is a mucositis involving the mucous membranes of the nasal septum. Patients often complain of nasal irritation, crusting, and epistaxis. Presently, there is no gold standard for the treatment of septal ulcerations.
Nasal congestion or "stuffy nose" occurs when nasal and adjacent tissues and blood vessels become swollen with excess fluid, causing a "stuffy" plugged feeling. Nasal congestion may or may not include a nasal discharge or "runny nose." Nasal congestion usually is just an annoyance for older children and adults.
Nasal congestion, also called a stuffy nose, is often a symptom of another health problem such as a sinus infection. It may also be caused by the common cold. Nasal congestion is marked by: a stuffy or runny nose.
Short description: Nasal & sinus dis NEC. ICD-9-CM 478.19 is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 478.19 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015.
ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code J01 sinusitis NOS (J32. 9); chronic sinusitis (J32. 0-J32. 8); acute abscess of sinus; acute empyema of sinus; acute infection of sinus; acute inflammation of sinus; acute suppuration of sinus; code (B95-B97) to identify infectious agent.
Chronic sinusitis occurs when the spaces inside your nose and head (sinuses) are swollen and inflamed for three months or longer, despite treatment. This common condition interferes with the way mucus normally drains, and makes your nose stuffy.
If the patient has all four sinuses affected (unilaterally or bilaterally), then code J32. 4 is reported alone for chronic pansinusitis.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J32.9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Inflammation of the paranasal sinuses that typically lasts beyond eight weeks. It is caused by infections, allergies, and the presence of sinus polyps or deviated septum. Signs and symptoms include headache, nasal discharge, swelling in the face, dizziness, and breathing difficulties.
Inflammatory process of the mucous membranes of the paranasal sinuses that occurs in three stages: acute, subacute, and chronic; results from any condition causing ostial obstruction or from pathophysiologic changes in the mucociliary transport mechanism.
If your nose is swollen, this can block the sinuses and cause pain and infection. Sinusitis can be acute, lasting for less than four weeks, or chronic, lasting much longer. Acute sinusitis often starts as a cold, which then turns into a bacterial infection.
Inflammation of the paranasal sinuses that typically lasts beyond eight weeks. It is caused by infections, allergies, and the presence of sinus polyps or deviated septum. Signs and symptoms include headache, nasal discharge, swelling in the face, dizziness, and breathing difficulties.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J32 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Treatments include antibiotics, decongestants and pain relievers. Using heat pads on the inflamed area, saline nasal sprays and vaporizers can also help. Code History.

Acute sinusitis often starts as a cold, which then turns into a bacterial infection. Allergies, pollutants, nasal problems and certain diseases can also cause sinusitis.symptoms of sinusitis can include fever, weakness, fatigue, cough and congestion.
There may also be mucus drainage in the back of the throat, called postnasal drip. Treatments include antibiotics, decongestants and pain relievers. Using heat pads on the inflamed area, saline nasal sprays and vaporizers can also help. Codes. J32 Chronic sinusitis. J32.0 Chronic maxillary sinusitis.
R09.81 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of nasal congestion. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Post-nasal drip (PND, or post nasal drip syndrome, PNDS, also known as Upper Airways Cough Syndrome, UACS) occurs when excessive mucus is produced by the nasal mucosa.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code R09.81 and a single ICD9 code, 478.19 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Codes for sinusitis are located in ICD-10-CM Chapter 10 , Diseases of the Respiratory System (category J00-J99). There are important concepts to consider when documenting sinusitis; the selected codes will identify the affected sinus and time parameter (acute, chronic or recurrent).
When the term Sinusitis with the subterms acute or chronic, affecting more than one sinus other than pansinusitis, is referenced in the Alphabetic Index, it sends the user to the other sinusitis codes J01, Acute; other sinusitis and J32 Chronic; other sinusitis.
Category J01 contains an Excludes2 that allows for reporting chronic sinusitis (J32.0-J32.8) in addition to acute sinusitis. Excludes II notes allow you to report both conditions where documentation supports both conditions as present, and where the category does not include a code for acute on chronic.
