*See [[CRF]]
==CRF - Definition==
'''Chronic Renal Failure''' is coded as a''' comorbid condition''' only for any patient who is receiving '''chronic outpatient dialysis''' for kidney failure '''prior to''' the current hospital admission. 




*For '''newly dialyzed''' patients use the [[ARF (Diagnosis)]] codes instead.
==Data Integrity Rules==
*See the data integrity check related to this code at "[[CRF vs ARF, ARI, Renal Transplant]]".
* if COMORBID coded with CRF (351),then ARF (350), ARI (364) or 352 (ATN),cannot be coded in admit or complications.
*if LOS in ICU or medicine <=3 days and IF comorbid DX is 351, then TISS 52-55 or Medicine TASK item not marked is correct.
(most CRF patient will have dialysis 2-3 times per week, so checking every patient with LOS of <= days who have 351 in comorbid, but nothing on TISS or in TASK, if creating excessive chart checks.
* if Julie would like to comment further.
