Renal Glycosuria ICD10 code: E74.8
Renal Glycosuria ICD9 code: 271.8
Renal glycosuria is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the presence of glucose in the urine despite normal blood sugar levels. It occurs when the kidneys are unable to reabsorb glucose efficiently, leading to its excretion in the urine. Although the condition is generally benign and asymptomatic, it can be detected through routine urine tests.
In the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10), renal glycosuria is classified under code E74.8. This code is specific for "other disorders of carbohydrate metabolism," which includes various rare metabolic disorders affecting carbohydrate utilization or transport. It is important to note that E74.8 encompasses a range of conditions beyond renal glycosuria.
In the previous revision, the ICD-9 code for renal glycosuria was 271.8. This code fell under the category of "other disorders of carbohydrate transport and metabolism." Similarly to the ICD-10 code, 271.8 encompassed various disorders related to carbohydrate metabolism, not solely renal glycosuria.
It is crucial to consult a healthcare professional or reference official coding guidelines to ensure accurate coding and billing. These codes are used for medical recordkeeping, statistical analysis, and insurance reimbursement purposes, helping healthcare providers and researchers better understand and manage various conditions.
