N06.20 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of isolated proteinuria with diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis, unspecified. The code is valid during the current fiscal year for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions from October 01, 2023 through September 30, 2024.

Unspecified diagnosis codes like N06.20 are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition. Although a more specific code is preferable, unspecified codes should be used when such codes most accurately reflect what is known about a patient's condition. Specific diagnosis codes should not be used if not supported by the patient's medical record.

N06.20 is new to ICD-10-CM code set for the FY 2024, effective October 1, 2023.

This is a new and revised code for the FY 2024 (October 1, 2023 - September 30, 2024).
