When patients have DDM, HTN and CKD do you assign DDM with CKD, E11.22, N18.3 and hypertensive chronic kidney disease, I12.9, N18.3?
I know people will say to ask the doctor. But I work in family practice and many of the doctors don't know which came first. The chicken or the egg. ICD10 says to assume the relationship between the CKD and HTN also the CKD with DDM. So I am confused. I appreciate any imput. I have researched the crap out of this and I can not find the answer. Thank you!
