ICD-10 Clinic - Book 6: Urinary Tract and Skin

Two chapters that both ask the same thing: how far has it gone? Chronic kidney disease is classified in stages, and this book takes every branch to its end, including the one that catches almost everybody. It then shows you the combination codes that join kidney disease to high blood pressure, and the dialysis and transplant status codes the Tabular List asks for. Part two covers the skin: cellulitis with its site and side, and the pressure ulcer codes that carry both the site and the stage in a single code. It also explains the unusual documentation rule that lets a wound care nurse supply the stage, and exactly where that permission stops. Fifteen exercises with worked answers.

Twenty-five A4 pages, in full colour. Written in short sentences and plain English, for readers whose first language is not English and clearer for everyone else because of it.

Every ICD-10-CM code in this book was verified against the official 2026 code set before the file was made. Instant PDF download. By M.R. Sterling.
