How is Z52.29 listed in the Alphabetic Index?
These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to Z52.29. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.
- Donor › bone › specified type NEC (organ or tissue)
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from Z52
The conditions below can never be reported together with Z52.29 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- cadaveric donor - omit code
- examination of potential donor (Z00.5)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Z40-Z53
The conditions below are not part of Z52.29, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, Z52.29 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- follow-up examination for medical surveillance after treatment (Z08-Z09)
