Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ICD-10 code for unspecified kidney failure?
The ICD-10-CM code for unspecified kidney failure is N19. The full clinical description is "Unspecified kidney failure". N19 is a billable/specific code that can be used on insurance claims and medical billing.
What does ICD-10 code N19 mean?
ICD-10-CM code N19 represents “Unspecified kidney failure”. It is classified under Chapter 14: Diseases of the Genitourinary System and is a billable/specific code that can be used on a claim.
Is N19 a billable code?
Yes, N19 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code and can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a medical claim.
What chapter is N19 in?
N19 is in Chapter 14: Diseases of the Genitourinary System (codes N00-N99).
What codes cannot be used with N19?
N19 has Excludes1 notes indicating codes that cannot be used together with it, including: acute kidney failure (N17.-); chronic kidney disease (N18.-); chronic uremia (N18.9); and 4 more.
What SNOMED CT codes does N19 map to?
N19 maps to 47 SNOMED CT concepts: 764453009, 112066009, 128095007, 194909006, 234348004, and 42 more. SNOMED CT is a clinical terminology used in electronic health records.
