About N06
N06 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for isolated proteinuria with specified morphological lesion. It belongs to block N00-N08 (glomerular diseases) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 11 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: N06.0 (abnormality), N06.1 (lesions), N06.2 (glomerulonephritis), N06.3 (glomerulonephritis), N06.4 (glomerulonephritis), N06.5 (glomerulonephritis), N06.6 (disease), N06.7 (glomerulonephritis) and 3 more.
Don't report N06 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: Proteinuria not associated with specific morphologic lesions (R80.0).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
