Egg (Oocyte) donor age 35 and over, designated recipient

This code identifies a female patient who is donating her oocytes (eggs) for reproductive purposes, specifically when she is 35 years of age or older at the time of donation. The oocytes are intended for a designated recipient, meaning the donor knows who will receive her eggs.

This code is used when documenting the medical encounter for an egg donor who meets the age criteria and is donating to a specific individual or couple. It would be applied during the work-up, screening, and retrieval phases of the donation process. This code is relevant for fertility clinics and reproductive endocrinology practices.

• Ensure the patient's age at the time of donation is documented as 35 years or older.
• Verify documentation explicitly states the oocytes are for a "designated recipient" as opposed to anonymous donation.
• This code is typically a secondary diagnosis, accompanying codes for the donor's medical evaluation or procedures (e.g., Z00.00 for general medical examination).
