'''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 the patient was on chronic out-patient dialysis PRIOR TO this hospital admission then the patient is considered to be CRF (chronic renal failure). This should be coded as a comorbid code.


*If a patient is on out-patient dialysis '''PRIOR TO''' current hospital admission then he is considered to have Chronic Renal Failure (CRF).  This should be code in the comorbid diagnosis field only.
*For newly dialyzed patients see [[ARF - Acute Renal Failure]] coding definition.
