N07

Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 12 more specific codes instead:

  • N07.0 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with minor glomerular abnormality
  • N07.1 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with focal and segmental glomerular lesions
  • N07.2 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis
  • N07.3 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis
  • N07.4 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with diffuse endocapillary proliferative glomerulonephritis
  • N07.5 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with diffuse mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis
  • N07.6 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with dense deposit disease
  • N07.7 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis
  • N07.8 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with other morphologic lesions
  • N07.9 Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with unspecified morphologic lesions
  • N07.A Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with C3 glomerulonephritis
  • N07.B Hereditary nephropathy, not elsewhere classified with APOL1-mediated kidney disease [AMKD]

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.

Official coding rules

Published by CDC for FY2027. A rule attached to a category binds every code beneath it, so the rules inherited from this code's ancestors are shown with the code they come from.
