N39.41
BillableUrge incontinence
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Involuntary leakage of urine accompanied by a sudden, strong urge to urinate that cannot be controlled.
Coding Tips
- •Ensure documentation describes the sudden urge component; without this, stress incontinence (N39.3) may be more appropriate
- •Often associated with overactive bladder; review for related conditions that may need separate coding
Excludes 1 — Do NOT code together
- mixed incontinence (N39.46)
