HOw would you code if something is subacute and chronic pyelonephritis?
 
I'd code subacute and chronic pyelonephritis as:
590.10
590.00

{that's my opinion on the posted matter}
 
Normally, an acute condition is coded as primary and then code the chronic condition. That is based on normal ICD-9 guidelines. addend: I agree with the above codes
