A 17- years old female has a bone marrow biopsy for examination as a potential volunteer stem cell donor for her mother who has acute monocytic leukemia (AML). The diagnosis code used for the typing of stem cell specimens is Z52.3.
Answer: Z52.3
In this case the stem cell donor is the stem cell specimen. Z52 is the code used for ICD 10 CM for reimbursement purposes for stem cell donor. ICD 10 CM are diagnostic codes for all symptoms, diseases and procedures recorded in the hospitals and health care centers.
