The ICD-10-CM code for lung s transplant is Z94.2 (Lung transplant status). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on Z94.2.
Within Z94 (transplanted organ and tissue status), Z94.2 is specifically for lung transplant status. Related codes cover kidney transplant status (Z94.0), heart transplant status (Z94.1), heart and lungs transplant status (Z94.3), liver transplant status (Z94.4), skin transplant status (Z94.5), bone transplant status (Z94.6), corneal transplant status (Z94.7), other transplanted organ and tissue status (Z94.8) and 1 more.
As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 205 (Other Respiratory System Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 1.8244) and DRG 206 (Other Respiratory System Diagnoses without MCC, relative weight 0.9257), in MDC 04 (Diseases and Disorders of the Respiratory System), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
