When these patients reach end-stage renal disease or stage 5, the life expectancy shortens even further. Individuals aged 60 years and 85 years have a life expectancy of 6 years and between twelve and eighteen months, respectively.
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.
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:
A patient with the diagnosis of ESRD requires chronic dialysis. Per the Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, Section I.C. 14a. 1, If both a stage of CKD and ESRD are documented, the coding professional would assign code N18.
Code N18. 6, end-stage renal disease, is to be reported for CKD that requires chronic dialysis. relationship between diabetes and CKD when both conditions are documented in the medical record.
This code would be a focus of clinical documentation improvement, as stages 4 and 5 are complication/comorbidity (CC) diagnoses, and ESRD is a major complication/comorbidity (MCC).
Overview. End-stage renal failure, also known as end-stage renal disease (ESRD), is the final, permanent stage of chronic kidney disease, where kidney function has declined to the point that the kidneys can no longer function on their own.
N18. 31- Chronic Kidney Disease- stage 3a. N18. 32- Chronic Kidney Disease- stage 3b.
Documenting the stage of CKD—not the GFR—is vital for accurate coding. If the stage is not documented, then code 585.9, Chronic kidney disease, is assigned. If a provider documents both a stage of CKD and ESRD, then only the code for ESRD (585.6) is assigned.
Code I13. 2, Hypertensive heart and chronic kidney disease with heart failure and with stage 5 chronic kidney disease or ESRD, is a combination code that represents all three conditions found under DRGs 291-293, Heart Failure and Shock as a principal diagnosis.
End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is when you have permanent kidney failure that requires a regular course of dialysis or a kidney transplant.
DRG 177 (Respiratory infections and inflammations with MCC) and 178 (Respiratory infections and inflammations with CC).

Kidney failure, also called end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), is the fifth and last stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Kidney failure cannot be reversed and is life-threatening if left untreated. However, dialysis or a kidney transplant can help you live for many more years.

A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes. Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries.
