Additional Info
This code is not intended for the RECIPIENT of the transplant, use codes in [[:]] for that.
- Organ donors can be dead or alive.
- We only want to code this for major organ donations, i.e. not cornea, skin or bones.
- This code is for the donor, not recepients of transplanted organs.

Deceased organ donors
We will not have a separate code for cadaver donations. Instead also code the following as appropriate
- After brain death: Brain death
- Donation after Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) -- where a person who undergoes MAID has made arrangements in advance for organ harvesting after death.
We do not have a special code for:
- Donation after cardiac death (DCD) -- where a donor who is not brain dead is dependent on life support and the family has decided to withdraw care. When the patient's heart stops beating, the organs are then recovered in the operating room.
Some organ donors have a bronchscopy done, but not all do, so don't automatically assume and code it. The only time it is done is if there are considering the lungs. This is according to a Respirologist from STB ICU.
Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition
Candidate Combined ICD10 codes
Related CCI Codes
If a braindead person goes to OR to harvest organs, then that procedures, just code this code, even though the code happens after they leave the unit. They do need to be coded for live donors.
