Z94.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of kidney transplant status. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. Documentation insufficient to determine if the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. Clinically undetermined.
N18.5 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Chronic kidney disease, stage 5 . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 . ICD-10 code N18.5 is based on the following Tabular structure:
When facing the likelihood of requiring at least two kidney transplants in their lives, pediatric patients with kidney failure who receive their first transplant from live kidney donor have more favorable outcomes vs those who receive organs from deceased donors, new research shows.
End stage renal disease. N18.6 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM N18.6 became effective on October 1, 2018.

Transplantation of Left Kidney, Allogeneic, Open Approach ICD-10-PCS 0TY10Z0 is a specific/billable code that can be used to indicate a procedure.
ICD-10 Codes for Kidney Transplant Rejection and Failure 1 code for kidney transplant rejection or failure specified as either T86. 100 for kidney transplant rejection or as T86. 101 for kidney transplant failure.
Two codes are necessary to completely classify a transplant complication. One code identifies the transplanted organ (996.8x). The fifth digit subclassification is required to identify the specific organ affected, while the second code is needed to identify the complication.
For patients who have received a kidney transplant, the coder should assign the appropriate N18 code for the patient's stage of CKD and code Z94.
ICD-10-PCS will be the official system of assigning codes to procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. ICD-10-PCS codes will support data collection, payment and electronic health records. ICD-10-PCS is a medical classification coding system for procedural codes.
In ICD-10-PCS, the root operation for this procedure is Transplantation as the objective of the procedure is to take over the function of a body part. The Index main term entry is Transplantation; subterms include Kidney, Right, which direct the user to Table 0TY.
Hemodialysis, single encounter, is classified to ICD-10-PCS code 5A1D00Z, which is located in the Extracorporeal Assistance and Performance section. Multiple encounters of hemodialysis is classified to code 5A1D60Z.
2: Dependence on renal dialysis.
Transplant glomerulopathy (TG) is a morphologic lesion of renal allografts that is characterized histologically by duplication and/or multilayering of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM).
End Stage Renal Disease ESRD is reported as 585.6 in ICD-9-CM and N18. 6 in ICD-10-CM. Additional guidance is provided in ICD-10-CM under N18. 6 to use additional codes to identify dialysis status (Z99.
Transplanted organ and tissue status 1 Z94 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. 2 The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM Z94 became effective on October 1, 2020. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z94 - other international versions of ICD-10 Z94 may differ.
The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM Z94 became effective on October 1, 2020.

When kidneys cease to filter wastes and extra fluid from the bloodstream, renal failure is considered to be permanent and consideration must be given to hemodialysis and/or kidney transplantation. A common complication of kidney transplant is rejection of the transplanted organ.
Kidney transplantation is a treatment option for most patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). The procedure may be deceased-donor (cadaveric) or living-donor transplantation. Living-donor renal transplants may be genetically related (living-related) or non-related (living-unrelated) transplants.
A kidney transplant may not fully restore function to the kidney, and some residual kidney disease could be present. Without the link provided by the physician, coders should report V42.7 with an additional code for the CKD. Physicians may also document in the medical record of the post-kidney transplant recipient ESRD.
Therefore, the presence of CKD alone does not constitute transplant complication. Assign the appropriate N18 code for the patient’s CKD and code Z94.0, kidney transplant status.
