A pathologic condition of acid accumulation or depletion of base in the body. The two main types are respiratory acidosis and metabolic acidosis, due to metabolic acid build up. A state due to excess retention of carbon dioxide in the body. Acid base imbalance resulting from an accumulation of carbon dioxide secondary to hypoventilation.
E87.21 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2025 edition of ICD-10-CM E87.21 became effective on October 1, 2024. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of E87.21 - other international versions of ICD-10 E87.21 may differ.
Normally, the osmolar gap should be ~10-100 mOsm. (38837536) In the context of metabolic acidosis: Osmolar gap <150 mOsm indicates inadequate renal ammonium excretion (suggests RTA type I or IV). Osmolar gap >150 mOsm indicates appropriate ammonium excretion.
E87.2 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of acidosis. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. In renal physiology, normal anion gap acidosis, and less precisely non-anion gap acidosis, is an acidosis that is not accompanied by an abnormally increased anion gap.
ICD-10 code E87.2 for Acidosis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases .

E87.22 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2025 edition of ICD-10-CM E87.22 became effective on October 1, 2024. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of E87.22 - other international versions of ICD-10 E87.22 may differ.
E87.21 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of acute metabolic acidosis. The code is valid during the current fiscal year for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions from October 01, 2024 through September 30, 2025.
Further classification of metabolic acidosis is based on the presence or absence of an anion gap, or concentration of unmeasured serum anions. Plasma neutrality dictates that anions must balance cations to maintain a neutral charge.
Nongap metabolic acidosis is a common form of both acute and chronic metabolic acidosis. Because derangements in renal acid-base regulation are a common cause of nongap metabolic acidosis, studies to evaluate renal acidification often serve as the mainstay of differential diagnosis.
