About coding kidney rickets

The ICD-10-CM code for kidney rickets is N25.0 (Renal osteodystrophy).

Within N25 (disorders resulting from impaired renal tubular function), N25.0 is specifically for renal osteodystrophy. Related codes cover Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (N25.1), other disorders resulting from impaired renal tubular function (N25.8) and disorder resulting from impaired renal tubular function, unspecified (N25.9).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of N25.0, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: metabolic disorders classifiable to E70-E88.

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