N02.B — Recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy
Is N02.B billable?
No — N02.B is a non-billable header code. N02.B groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 7 billable codes beneath N02.B.

How is N02.B listed in the Alphabetic Index?
These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to N02.B. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.
- Nephropathy › IgA
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from N00-N08
The conditions below can never be reported together with N02.B on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- hypertensive chronic kidney disease (I12.-)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from N02
The conditions below can never be reported together with N02.B on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 14
The conditions below are not part of N02.B, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, N02.B and the excluded code may both be reported.
- certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
- congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
- endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88)
- injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88)
- neoplasms (C00-D49)
- symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R94)
Code also — inherited from N00-N08
Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether N02.B is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.
- any associated kidney failure (N17-N19).
What codes fall under N02.B? (7)
- N02.B1Recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy with glomerular lesion
- N02.B2Recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy with focal and segmental glomerular lesion
- N02.B3Recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy with diffuse membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis
- N02.B4Recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy with diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis
- N02.B5Recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy with diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis
- N02.B6Recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy with diffuse mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis
- N02.B9Other recurrent and persistent immunoglobulin A nephropathy
How long has N02.B existed?
N02.B first appears in FY2024.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
