Wiki Hypertension and renal failure

[nanaks]

Hello everybody,
I need help coding below. How should I code these? I am so confused.

1) Acute renal failure with hypertension

This is "Acute", so I can't use hypertensive chronic kidney disease (403)
nor just acute kidney failure (584)?


2) Hypertensive renal disease with CRF

Does this mean simply "hypertensive chronic kidney disease"?
-403.90, 585.9?

Thank you!

For #1 you will code the acute renal failure with a 584 code, with nothing else documented use 584.9 and the HTN as 401.9
#2 it is 403.90 with 585.9
