N07Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

N07 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes2 — not included here, but may coexist

The excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient can have both. You may code both.

  • Alport's syndrome (Q87.81-)
  • hereditary amyloid nephropathy (E85.-)
  • nail patella syndrome (Q87.2)
  • non-neuropathic heredofamilial amyloidosis (E85.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with N07

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at N07. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading N07 alone.

  • N07.5Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with diffuse mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis
  • N07.AHereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with C3 glomerulonephritis

Risk adjustment

N07 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

Code to one of these instead N07

12 child codes. Green means billable.
