According to Coding Clinic, chronic restrictive lung disease is assigned to code 518.89, Other diseases of lung, not elsewhere classified. It also says that chronic restrictive lung disease “is an ill-defined term, however, and should be used only when the condition cannot be described more specifically.”

Interstitial pulmonary disease, unspecified J84. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, refers to a group of diseases that cause airflow blockage and breathing-related problems. It includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. COPD makes breathing difficult for the 16 million Americans who have this disease.

Respiratory tuberculosis, not confirmed bacteriologically or histologically2. Tuberculosis of lung, without mention of bacteriological or histological confirmation. Tuberculosis of intrathoracic lymph nodes, without mention of bacteriological or histological confirmation.
A chronic and progressive lung disorder characterized by the loss of elasticity of the bronchial tree and the air sacs, destruction of the air sacs wall, thickening of the bronchial wall, and mucous accumulation in the bronchial tree.
Signs and symptoms include shortness of breath, wheezing, productive cough, and chest tightness. The two main types of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are chronic obstructive bronchitis and emphysema. A disease of chronic diffuse irreversible airflow obstruction. Subcategories of copd include chronic bronchitis and pulmonary emphysema.
A type of lung disease marked by permanent damage to tissues in the lungs, making it hard to breathe. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease includes chronic bronchitis, in which the bronchi (large air passages) are inflamed and scarred, and emphysema, in which the alveoli (tiny air sacs) are damaged.
