About Z52.3

Z52.3 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for bone marrow donor. It belongs to category Z52 (donors of organs and tissues), block Z40-Z53 (Encounters for other specific health care) and chapter 21 (factors influencing health status and contact with health services). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within Z52 (donors of organs and tissues), Z52.3 is specifically for bone marrow donor. Related codes cover blood donor (Z52.0), skin donor (Z52.1), bone donor (Z52.2), kidney donor (Z52.4), cornea donor (Z52.5), liver donor (Z52.6), donor of other specified organs or tissues (Z52.8) and donor of unspecified organ or tissue (Z52.9).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 951 (Other Factors Influencing Health Status, relative weight 0.5577), in MDC 23 (Factors Influencing Health Status and Other Contacts with Health Services), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.

It is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as V59.3 (bone marrow donors).
