Here is the scenario: Pt comes in for yearly transplant evaluation for possible kidney transplant. Pt's natural kidneys have been removed due to polycystic kidney disease. Pt had a kidney transplant but that kidney was also removed due to rejection. Yes the patient has no kidneys and is on dialysis. Dr. dictates ESRD secondary to polycystic kidney disease. How do you code it? Please supply any documentation as to where you got the information on how to code it.
