Rationale : ICD-10-CM guideline I.C.9.a.2 indicates to assign codes from category I12 when conditions classified to category N18 are present with hypertension. A causal relationship is assumed between hypertension and chronic kidney disease. Guideline I.C.14.a.1 tells us to code N18.6 when the provider has documented end-stage renal disease. In the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index look for Hypertension, hypertensive/with kidney involvement and you are directed to see Hypertension, kidney. Hypertension/kidney/with/stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) referring you to I12.0. In the Tabular List, there is an instructional note to use an additional code to identify the stage of the chronic kidney disease (N18.5, N18.6). In this case, the patient has end-stage renal disease, reporting code N18.6. This is found in the Alphabetic Index by looking for Disease, diseased/renal/with/end-stage (failure) referring you to N18.6.
Look for Neoplasm/intestine/large/colon/descending and use the code from the Malignant Secondary column guiding you to code C78.5.
Rationale : ICD-10-CM guideline I.C.2.r indicates this situation requires three codes (complication, neoplasm associated with transplant organ, and the malignancy) and is to be coded as a transplant complication. The guideline tells us to assign first the appropriate code from T86.-, Complications of transplanted organs, followed by code C80.2 Malignant neoplasm with a transplanted organ, then to use an additional code for the specific malignancy. Hepatic means related to the liver. Look in the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index for Complication/transplant/liver/specified type NEC which directs you to T86.49. Next, the neoplasm associated with the transplanted organ is coded. Look in the Alphabetic Index for Complication/transplant/malignant neoplasm which directs you to C80.2. In the Tabular List, C80.2 has a note to code first the complication code (T86.-) and to use an additional code for the specific malignancy. Cholangiocarcinoma is bile duct carcinoma. Look in the Alphabetic Index for Carcinoma/hepatocellular/with the bile duct, mixed which directs you to C22.0. You can also look for Cholangiocarcinoma/with hepatocellular carcinoma, combined which directs you to C22.0. If you look to report the status post hepatic transplant, look in the Alphabetic Index for Transplant (ed) status)/liver Z94.4. However, there is an Excludes1 note which indicates this code is not reported for post-transplant complications so Z94.4 is not reported.
Rationale : In the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index look for Hypothyroidism/iodine-deficiency/congenital and you are directed to see Syndrome, iodine-deficiency, congenital. Syndrome/iodine-deficiency, congenital which directs you to code E00.9. In the Tabular List, category E00 directs us to use additional code (F70-F79) to identify associated intellectual disabilities. In the Alphabetic Index look for Disability, disabilities/intellectual which guides you to code F79. Confirm code selection in the Tabular List.
Category 2 is considered low vision. Looking through the codes, low vision in the left eye is reported with H54.52-. A2 is assigned as 6th and 7th character to identify Category 2. Or, you can look in the Alphabetic Index for Low/vision/one eye/left (normal vision on right) referring you to H54.52. It is important to read the instructional notes in the Tabular List that are associated with categories before selecting your code. Category H54 also has a note to code first any cause of the blindness. In this case, the low vision is due to astigmatism. Look in the Alphabetic Index for Astigmatism referring you to H52.20-. In the Tabular List, H52.202 is reported for the left eye.
The patient's provider performed an ACTH and a 24-hour urinary free cortisol and short suppression test confirming the diagnosis of Cushing's disease.
