'''Chronic Renal Failure''' is coded for any patient who is on chronic dialysis due to kidney failure. '''''This code can only be used for comorbids'''''. For newly dialyzed patients use the [[ARF - Acute Renal Failure]] codes.

* If CRF ~~(351 00)~~ is ~~coded as comorbid then ARF (350~~ **) must be coded as ~~Admit/Acquired, except if Renal Transplant (805 00) is also coded as a comorbid.~~

* A patient who has been receiving outpatient dialysis treatments '''recently''' prior to hospitalization is considered to be in CRF.

* A patient who is '''not currently''' in a dialysis treatment program should '''not''' be considered to be in CRF.

* A patient with an intact kidney transplant who is not being dialyzed should '''not''' be coded as CRF

* If CRF (~~351 00~~) ~~is coded as comorbid then Acute~~ Renal ~~Insufficiency (364 00) must not appear in Admit/Acquired codes~~

See '''[[Renal Coding Considerations (old)]] and [[ICD10 Guideline for Renal Coding]]''' because there are a number of coding rules related to renal diagnoses.
