Patient EducationClinical
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.

Questions About R35.89Overview
Is R35.89 (Other polyuria) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report other polyuria on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does R35.89 group to?
When other polyuria is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 695, 696, with relative weights from 0.6890 to 1.1438 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Can R35.89 be a principal diagnosis?
Use it with care. This is a symptom code, so once a definitive diagnosis explaining the other polyuria is established, that condition takes the principal position instead.
Footnotes
[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
