Renal tubulo-interstitial disease, unspecified. N15.9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM N15.9 became effective on October 1, 2018.
Your doctor can prescribe a few different types of treatments to manage interstitial lung disease:
It is often fatal in early adulthood. People with the disease have inherited two copies of the defective cystic fibrosis gene, one copy from each parent. More than 70,000 people live with cystic...
What is Interstitial Cystitis (IC)/Bladder Pain Syndrome?
Most people with cystitis will not get a kidney infection, but occasionally the bacteria can travel up from the bladder into 1 or both kidneys. If treated with antibiotics straight away, a kidney infection does not cause serious harm, although you'll feel very unwell. Click here to know more about it.
Other interstitial pulmonary diseases with fibrosis The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J84. 1 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of J84. 1 - other international versions of ICD-10 J84.
N12: Tubulo-interstitial nephritis, not specified as acute or chronic.
ICD-10 code J84. 10 for Pulmonary fibrosis, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the respiratory system .
N28. 9, disorder of kidney and ureter, unspecified.
The infection-induced and idiopathic types of acute interstitial nephritis were always reversible. Drug-related acute interstitial nephritis caused permanent renal insufficiency in 36% with a maximum of 56% in NSAID-induced cases.
ICD-10 code N18. 9 for Chronic kidney disease, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
Interstitial lung disease refers to a group of about 100 chronic lung disorders characterized by inflammation and scarring that make it hard for the lungs to get enough oxygen. The scarring is called pulmonary fibrosis.
What causes pulmonary fibrosis? There are a number of known causes of pulmonary fibrosis. Exposure to toxins like asbestos, coal dust or silica (including workers in the coal mining and sandblasting industry) can lead to pulmonary fibrosis.
ICD-10 code K74. 0 for Hepatic fibrosis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the digestive system .
ICD-10 code R79. 89 for Other specified abnormal findings of blood chemistry is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
ICD-10-CM Code for Abnormal results of kidney function studies R94. 4.
Yes. In common usage, chronic kidney disease (CKD) and chronic renal failure are generally the same. "Failure" is generally reserved for Stage 5 CKD, but the terms are interchangeable.
A ureteral obstruction is a blockage in one or both of the tubes (ureters) that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Ureteral obstruction can be cured. However, if it's not treated, symptoms can quickly move from mild — pain, fever and infection — to severe — loss of kidney function, sepsis and death.
Kidney disease means your kidneys are damaged and can't filter blood the way they should. You are at greater risk for kidney disease if you have diabetes or high blood pressure. If you experience kidney failure, treatments include kidney transplant or dialysis.
Hydronephrosis is swelling of one or both kidneys. Kidney swelling happens when urine can't drain from a kidney and builds up in the kidney as a result. This can occur from a blockage in the tubes that drain urine from the kidneys (ureters) or from an anatomical defect that doesn't allow urine to drain properly.
ICD-10 code N28. 1 for Cyst of kidney, acquired is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as N28.9.A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

N26.9 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of renal sclerosis, unspecified. The code N26.9 is valid during the fiscal year 2022 from October 01, 2021 through September 30, 2022 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
Interstitial myofibroblasts have been proposed to originate from one or more of five sources: resident fibroblasts (pericytes), adventitial fibroblasts, circulating fibrocytes, tubular epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) or endothelial/ mesenchymal transition. To date, EMT has become the pre-eminent theory of the origin of myofibroblasts;
Over the last decade, considerable attention has been paid to the origin of the myofibroblast, the cell type most responsible for interstitial matrix accumulation. However, the origin (s) of myofibroblasts and how they gain access to the peritubular interstitium has become a matter of controversy and debate.
Moreover, interstitial fibrosis is the strongest morphologic predictor of clinical outcome and is most tightly linked to progression of disease, even though the primary disease may be of glomerular origin.
This article continues the series with ICD-10-CM coding for the idiopathic interstitial lung diseases (ICD 9-CM: 515-516.9; ICD-10-CM: J84-J84.9) and systemic diseases with lung involvement (ICD-9-CM: 135, 517.8 and 710-710.9; ICD-10-CM: D86.1-D86.3, M05.10-M05.19; M32.10-M35.02 and J99 ). The ICD-9 and ICD-10-CM coding for the idiopathic interstitial lung diseases was revised shortly before the last update on ICD-9-CM which occurred October 1, 2011. As a result there have been few changes in the code descriptors for the idiopathic interstitial lung diseases in ICD-10-CM.
ICD-9-CM code 515 for post inflammatory pulmonary fibrosis will be replaced by two codes, pulmonary fibrosis, unspecified, J84.10, or other specified interstitial pulmonary disease, J84.89 (Table One). The first code should be used if there is no known cause or disease associated with the pulmonary fibrosis, and the second code if there seems to be a cause or disease associated with the pulmonary fibrosis which is not captured by another pulmonary ICD-10-CM code.
Lung involvement can occur with sarcoidosis and other systemic diseases. Usually two ICD-9-CM codes are required to code for the systemic disease and the lung involvement. To code for pulmonary involvement in sarcoidosis for example, ICD-9-CM code 135, sarcoidosis, is used along with 517.8, lung involvement in other diseases classified elsewhere. For sarcoidosis in ICD-10-CM, D86.0 is the code for sarcoidosis of the lung and D86.2 is the code for sarcoidosis of the lung and lymph nodes (Table Two). D86.1 should be used for sarcoidosis of the lymph nodes seen in stage I sarcoidosis. It will be important for documentation using ICD-10-CM to describe the chest x-ray or chest CT findings along with pulmonary function studies in the patient’s record as well as pathologic findings supporting sarcoidosis. For ICD-10-CM, lung involvement in systemic diseases will require only one code (Table Two) Rheumatoid lung disease was identified by only one code in ICD-9-CM, 714.81, and, in ICD-10-CM, becomes M05.10, rheumatoid lung disease with rheumatoid arthritis of an unspecified site, or M05.19, rheumatoid lung disease with rheumatoid arthritis of multiple sites (Table Two). Rheumatoid lung disease codes for monoarticular rheumatoid arthritis ( M05.12-M05.17) should be used when only monoarticular rheumatoid arthitis is present. Documentation for lung involvement in rheumatoid arthritis and other systemic diseases will require describing the chest x-ray or chest CT findings, pulmonary functions studies and any lung pathology results in the patient’s record.
