*For a live donor (e.g. man giving a kidney to his sister) this can be (and virtually always WILL be) an [[Admit Diagnosis]].

{{DA | Why would it not be an [[Acquired Diagnosis]]? They may have been admitted for [[Preparatory care (incl preop optimization)]], no? Or would they then not be on a ward where we collect because we are not surgical? }}

* If I understand [[Guideline for coding organ donation after death]] right we will not actually be coding [[Organ donor (organ/tissue donation by the donor)]] ''for deceased patients'' , since that will always happen elsewhere, and pt won't come back to us after, so not our dx. If I understand that right we should probably put a one-liner here to make that clear since it's a bit counter-intuitive. And likely at that page as well.

* What date in the [[Acquired Diagnosis]] do you put for this code?   Do you use the date that they decide the pt will be an organ donor?  Or would you prefer the date the patient goes to the OR (which would be the same as the discharge date?

** These patients go to a different ward after transplant, right? So we would likely not currently track the CCI for this. Maybe transplants are something we should track if they are at the end of stay. I'll flag this for Allan.

***I am referring to an organ donor (not a transplant recipient). Most donors go to the morgue after donating their organs in the OR.  I am not asking about CCI, just the date for the acquire ICD10 code.  I am not sure who wrote the above comment.}}
