S37.0 — Injury of kidney

Not billable

Is S37.0 billable?

No — S37.0 is a non-billable header code. S37.0 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 60 billable codes beneath S37.0.

Excludes2 — not included here

The conditions below are not part of S37.0, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, S37.0 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • acute kidney injury (nontraumatic) (N17.9)

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from S37

The conditions below can never be reported together with S37.0 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • obstetric trauma to pelvic organs (O71.-)

Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19

Report an additional code alongside S37.0 to fully describe the condition. S37.0 is sequenced first.

  • code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
