N06.2 — Isolated proteinuria with diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis
Is N06.2 billable?
No — N06.2 is a non-billable header code. N06.2 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 4 billable codes beneath N06.2.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from N00-N08
The conditions below can never be reported together with N06.2 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 N06
The conditions below can never be reported together with N06.2 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- Proteinuria not associated with specific morphologic lesions (R80.0)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 14
The conditions below are not part of N06.2, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, N06.2 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 N06.2 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.
- any associated kidney failure (N17-N19).
What codes fall under N06.2? (4)
How long has N06.2 existed?
N06.2 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
- FY2024: N06.2 stopped being billable
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
