Dario Fairbanks: Chronic kidney disease
ENC-00093 · 65M · Hospital Medicine · admitted Tue Nov 03, 2026 08:42 AM · discharged Fri Nov 06, 2026 01:36 PM · attending Dr. Cyrus Ellingham · resident Dr. Greta Kowalczyk
Documented “CKD” (N18.9); criteria support the more specific Chronic kidney disease stage 4 (N18.4).
Documented vs supported
- Documented
- “CKD” · N18.9 Chronic kidney disease, unspecified
- Criteria support
- Chronic kidney disease stage 4 · N18.4 Chronic kidney disease, stage 4 (severe)
- Outcome
- Two eGFR values >=90 days apart; staging value 25.7 (G4)
- Rule
- Chronic kidney disease stage (eGFR, CKD-EPI 2021) v2026.11-1
- Published source
- KDIGO 2024 Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation and Management of Chronic Kidney Disease (2024), Chapter 1, Table 1 (definition: abnormality for a minimum of 3 months) and Table 2 (GFR categories) · source (checked 2026-11-14)
Effect if the clinician agrees (illustrative)
- Change
- N18.9 -> N18.4
- Secondary-diagnosis level
- non-CC → CC
- MS-DRG (illustrative)
- 690 Kidney and urinary tract infections without MCC → 690 Kidney and urinary tract infections without MCC
- Relative weight
- 0.8095 → 0.8095 (+0.0000)
- Codes before
- N39.0, N18.9, I50.9, E11.9, E78.5
- Codes after
- N39.0, I50.9, E11.9, E78.5, N18.4
All open gaps on this encounter together: MS-DRG 690 → 690 (RW +0.0000). The grouping does not change; the record becomes accurate.
CC/MCC status, CC exclusions (subset) and relative weights from the public CMS FY2026 IPPS final rule tables (5, 6I, 6J, 6K). This is not a grouper and not a payment estimate. Queries never mention any of this.
Severity documentation index change SIMULATED
0.5 points
SIMULATED: Illustrative severity weights (MCC = 1.0, CC = 0.5, non-CC = 0) summed over secondary diagnoses; not a validated risk-adjustment model and not a measured effect.
