R31 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for hematuria, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as R31.0, R31.1, R31.21, and R31.29. As a symptom code, it should not be used as a principal diagnosis once a related definitive diagnosis has been established.

Urine and Urination

Your kidneys make urine by filtering wastes and extra water from your blood. The waste is called urea. Your blood carries it to the kidneys. From the kidneys, urine travels down two thin tubes called ureters to the bladder. The bladder stores urine until you are ready to urinate.
