N22Calculus of urinary tract in diseases classified elsewhere

N22 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for calculus of urinary tract in diseases classified elsewhere. It belongs to block N20-N23 (Urolithiasis) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Code first underlying disease, such as: gout (M1A.-, M10.-) and schistosomiasis (B65.0-B65.9).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 693 (Urinary Stones with MCC, relative weight 1.3168) and DRG 694 (Urinary Stones without MCC, relative weight 0.7815), in MDC 11 (Diseases and Disorders of the Kidney and Urinary Tract), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.

It is a manifestation code, so it describes the effect of an underlying disease and can't be the principal diagnosis. Code the underlying condition first.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 592.9 (urinary calculus, unspecified).
