Other transplanted organ and tissue status

This code indicates that a patient has received an organ or tissue transplant other than those specifically classified elsewhere (e.g., heart, kidney, lung, bone marrow). It signifies the presence of a functioning transplanted organ or tissue that is not a common major organ.

Use this code for patients with a history of receiving less common transplants, such as pancreatic islet cells, small bowel, or cornea. It is appropriate when the transplant is stable and the patient is being seen for follow-up care related to the transplant or for other conditions while the transplant is still present.

• Always sequence this code as a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the reason for the encounter.
• Do not use this code if a more specific Z94.- code exists for the transplanted organ (e.g., Z94.0 for kidney transplant).
• Ensure documentation clearly specifies the type of transplanted organ or tissue to confirm it falls under "other" categories.
