ICD-10 code for Organ Transplantation: Z94.0
ICD-9 code for Organ Transplantation: V42.0
The ICD-10 code for organ transplantation is Z94.0. This code is used to classify patients who have undergone transplantation of organs, such as heart, kidney, liver, or lung. It indicates that the patient has received a transplanted organ and may require ongoing monitoring and care related to the transplantation procedure.
In contrast, the ICD-9 code for organ transplantation is V42.0. Similar to the ICD-10 code, this code is used to identify patients who have undergone organ transplantation. It helps healthcare providers track and document the history of organ transplantation in patients' medical records.
These codes are important for medical billing, statistical analysis, and research purposes. They enable healthcare professionals to accurately identify patients who have undergone organ transplantation and ensure appropriate care and follow-up. Additionally, these codes assist in studying the outcomes and effectiveness of organ transplantation procedures in different patient populations.
