N39Other disorders of urinary system

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

N39 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other disorders of urinary system. 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.

  • hematuria NOS (R31.-)
  • recurrent or persistent hematuria (N02.-)
  • recurrent or persistent hematuria with specified morphological lesion (N02.-)
  • proteinuria NOS (R80.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with N39

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at N39. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading N39 alone.

  • N15.9Renal tubulo-interstitial disease, unspecified
  • N39.3Stress incontinence (female) (male)
  • N39.41Urge incontinence
  • R32Unspecified urinary incontinence
  • R39.15Urgency of urination
  • R39.81Functional urinary incontinence

Risk adjustment

N39 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 N39

5 child codes. Green means billable.
