ICD-10 Coding for Abnormal Findings in Urine(R82.90, R82.7)
This diagnosis requires careful attention to:
Patient's urine test showed [specific abnormal findings]. Further investigation is needed to determine the cause.
Abnormal findings in urine include [specific abnormal findings]. The cause of these findings is not yet known.
No, these codes should only be used when the abnormal finding is not better explained by another, more specific code.
These codes should be used when abnormal findings are discovered in urine during routine screenings or diagnostic tests, and the cause of the abnormality is not yet known.
