Z52.810 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for egg (oocyte) donor under age 35, anonymous recipient. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Inclusion terms

Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.

  • Egg donor under age 35 NOS

Excludes1 inherited from the categories above Z52.810

These are not written on Z52.810, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing Z52.810 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on Z52 Donors of organs and tissues

  • cadaveric donor - omit code
  • examination of potential donor (Z00.5)

Other codes that can never be billed with Z52.810

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at Z52.810. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading Z52.810 alone.

  • Z40Encounter for prophylactic surgery

Risk adjustment

Z52.810 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

How Z52.810 is indexed

Coders do not find codes by browsing the tabular list — they look them up in the alphabetic index, under the word the physician wrote. These are the index entries that lead here, so you can see which chart wordings map to Z52.810.
