Does anyone know when you code 250.xx if you can use both 585.x (CKD Stage x) and 583.9 (unspecified pathological lesion in kidney)? I wasn't sure if you could use both with the DM code?
Thanks for your help.
:confused:
 
Coding 250.xx with 583.81

So the same would apply if you were to use 250.xx with 585.x or 585.81. You would only use the 585.x and not the 585.81. Am I correct?
Thanks again

What did the MD write on the progress note?

I am not sure if this is possible but you can check with your doctor:

"Diabetic nephritis with ESRD": 250.40, 583.81, 585.6
