ICD-10-CM Code N06.8
Isolated proteinuria with other morphologic lesion

BILLABLE
Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.
| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

N06.8 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of isolated proteinuria with other morphologic lesion. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code N06 is used to code Kidney disease

Kidney disease, also known as nephropathy or renal disease, is damage to or disease of a kidney. Nephritis is inflammatory kidney disease. Nephrosis is noninflammatory nephropathy. Kidney disease usually causes kidney failure (renal failure) to more or less degree, with the amount depending on the type of disease. In precise usage, disease denotes the structural and etiologic disease entity whereas failure denotes the dysfunction (lack of working well, that is, impaired renal function); but in common usage these meanings overlap; for example, the terms chronic kidney disease and chronic renal failure are usually considered synonymous. Acute kidney disease has often been called acute renal failure, although nephrologists now often tend to call it acute kidney injury.

Equivalent ICD-9 Code GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)

Nephritis and nephropathy, not specified as acute or chronic, with other specified pathological lesion in kidney (approximate match)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code N06.8 and a single ICD9 code, 583.89 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
