Q61.2

Billable

Polycystic kidney, adult type

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A genetic condition where multiple fluid-filled cysts develop in the kidneys during adulthood, potentially affecting kidney function over time.

Coding Tips

  • •This code is used when polycystic kidney disease is specifically documented as the adult-type (autosomal dominant) form
  • •Distinguish from Q61.3 (unspecified type) - use Q61.2 only when the adult type is explicitly stated in the medical record
