<h2>
Essential Hypertension or Primary Hypertension</h2>
Essential hypertension is the term used to describe high blood pressure. Essential or primary hypertension means that there is no underlying condition that is causing the blood pressure to increase. Up to 95 percent of hypertension is the essential type and, unless blood pressure readings are very high, efforts to control blood pressure are usually based on changes in lifestyle (weight loss, exercise, dietary changes, and reducing stress).<br />
<br />
<strong>Essential Hypertension Includes</strong>: high blood pressure, hyperpiesia, hyperpiesis, hypertension (arterial) (essential) (primary) (systemic), and hypertensive vascular<br />
<br />
<strong>Essential Hypertension Excludes</strong>: Elevated blood pressure without diagnosis of hypertension (796.2), Pulmonary hypertension (416.0-416.9) that involving vessels of brain (430-438), Eye (362.11)<br />

ICD 9 Hypertensive Chronic Kidney Disease (403) Coding

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on">Learn all about ICD 9 Hypertensive Chronic Kidney Disease (403) Codings:<br />
<br />
Hypertensive Chronic Kidney Diseases includes arteriolar nephritis, arteriosclerosis of kidney, renal arterioles, arteriosclerotic nephritis (chronic) (interstitial) as well as  hypertensive nephropathy, renal failure, uremia (chronic), nephrosclerosis, renal sclerosis with hypertension, any condition classifiable to 585 with any condition classifiable to 401.<br />
<br />
However, it excludes acute kidney failure (584.5-584.9), renal disease stated as not due to hypertension, renovascular hypertension.<br />
<br />
<h2>Hypertensive Kidney Disease</h2>Hypertensive Kidney Disease is a condition also known as arteriolar nephrosclerosis and is reported with codes from rubric 403. It is characterized by intimal thickening of the afferent arteriole of the glomerulus and due to long-standing or poorly controlled hypertension. <br />
<br />
In severe nephrosclerosis, the nephron is deprived of its blood supply, and areas of infarction occur with subsequent scar formation. Renal insufficiency occurs when the kidney is scarred and contracted. In most cases, the patient will eventually develop kidney failure. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.medicalbillingcodings.org/2012/12/icd9codings403-Hypertensive-Chronic-KidneyDisease.html" imageanchor="1"><img alt="ICD 9 Hypertensive Chronic Kidney Disease (403) Codings" border="0" height="106" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-weEYLsDeJ1k/T1Q6e_vg5oI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/hUb5IYsi4Pw/s1600/icd9.png" width="341" /></a></div><br />
This rubric reports chronic kidney disease associated with hypertensive renal disease due to progressive and irreversible destruction of the nephrons and should not be confused with acute renal failure. Acute renal failure is classified to rubric 584 and describes failure of the kidneys to perform their essential function due to trauma, impaired blood flow, toxic substances, bacterial infection, or obstruction of the urinary tract. Both diabetes mellitus and hypertension have associated kidney manifestations such as chronic kidney disease. <br />

<h2>
Secondary Hypertension</h2>
Secondary hypertension is a condition caused by renovascular or other diseases. Renovascular hypertension is the obstruction of renal blood flow at the level of the renal artery. The obstruction stimulates the renin-angiotensin system causing an increase in systemic angiotensin, which in turn causes the retention of sodium and water resulting in hypertension. <br />
<br />
Surgical reconstruction of the renal artery or percutaneous transluminal angioplasty may be performed to relieve the obstruction. Other causes of secondary hypertension include renal parenchymal diseases, oral contraceptives, primary aldosteronism, Cushing's syndrome, pheochromocytoma, hyperparathyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and acromegaly. <br />

Medical Billing vs Medical Coding

Medical Billing and Medical Coding are operations of the same medical financing business domain that deals with the processing of health insurance claims, and are often performed by the same professionals.<br />
<br />
Most of the time, Medical Biller and Medical Coder are the two roles of the very same professional due to integrated and overlapping nature of these skill sets. However, they are different disciplines with their own responsibilities and specialties.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.medicalbillingcodings.org/2012/12/billing-vs-medical-coding.html" imageanchor="1"><img alt="Medical Billing vs Medical Coding" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPC6UJ7r_1oT3RyLtKeLyFj_zyIvBLdRT2NprrD1F70MPo7YfphR0xc13-SkJ_ux2Bm69QQXV8TNMOgluJeSoOCPkAW-UzudpvsW8K5Xaek5wWM3HefUUsGBzeGsob10SVkBfI4ZdVzvE/s1600/ITrans-Medical-Transcription-Training-Centre-3.jpg" width="100%" /></a></div><a href="http://www.medicalbillingcodings.org/2012/12/billing-vs-medical-coding.html" imageanchor="1"><h2>Medical Coding vs Medical Billing</h2></a><br />
Mostly,  Medical Billers are also Medical Coders because both roles involve the review  of medical documentation its standardized into ICD and CPT codes into to submit a healthcare insurance claim in HIPAA complaint format to insurance clearing house or insurance for payment.<br />
 <br />
While, Medical Billing is related to providing accurate, timely reimbursement based on the ICD and CPT codes used, Medical Coding is more focused on documenting a health insurance claim with maximum possible quality in term of completeness and correctness, leaving the reimbursement and follow-up related function to the Medical Billers.<br />
<br />
Medical Coding involves listening to recordings made by physicians (providers) or other health care professionals at provider office and document medical insurance claim(s) on the bases of that documentation. This documentation comes in the form of patient charts, visit summaries, discharge reports, patient surgical reports or diagnostic test studies. Medical Coders must have expertise in understanding and documenting medical terminology with and excellent knowledge of ICD and CPT codings.<br />
<br />
Medical Billing involves working with patient health insurance claims. Since many hospitals and physicians' offices outsource billing and insurance claims to third parties, medical billers can find a reliable workload. They manage patient records, file insurance claims, prepare insurance forms and send bills to patients. Medical billers need to communicate with both insurance companies and physicians to ensure they properly code medical services. They need to understand medical coding so that insurance claims are processed accurately.<br />
<br />
<h3>Medical Coding and Billing Process Similarities</h3>Both Medical Coding and Medical Billing require specific knowledge in the medical field. While Medical Billers and Coders do not have to know how to treat patients, they have to possess a specific set of medical knowledge--medical terminology for coding and billings of health insurance claims. <br />
<br />
Individuals in both Medical Coding and Medical Billing can work in traditional health care settings in hospitals or physicians' offices or they can work for third parties or even for themselves from the comfort of home.<br />
<br />
<h3>Medical Biller vs Coder Differences</h3>Although both Medical Coders and medical billers provide services for hospitals and physicians' offices, their purpose is distinctly different. Medical Coders work on the medical, patient-care side of health care, helping develop reports that physicians can assess and learn from. <br />
<br />
Medical Billing ensures that the patient and health insurance company are properly billed for all procedures. Approved claims are reimbursed, while rejected claims are researched and amended. Thus Medical Billing is a part of the business side of health care.
