R93.49Abnormal radiologic findings on diagnostic imaging of other urinary organs

R93.49 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for abnormal radiologic findings on diagnostic imaging of other urinary organs. It belongs to category R93 (abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of other body structures), block R90-R94 (abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging and in function studies, without diagnosis) and chapter 18 (symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within R93.4, choose R93.49 (other urinary organs) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: renal pelvis, ureter, or bladder (R93.41) and kidney (R93.42).

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 695 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Signs and Symptoms with MCC, relative weight 1.1139) and DRG 696 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Signs and Symptoms without MCC, relative weight 0.6679), 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 was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 793.5 (nonspecific (abnormal) findings on radiological and other examination of genitourinary organs).
