About 02124KC

02124KC is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the coronary artery, three arteries using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with nonautologous tissue substitute (qualifier: thoracic artery). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Double internal mammary-coronary artery bypass, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (36.16).

For a different body part, codes include 02104KC (coronary artery, one artery), 02114KC (coronary artery, two arteries) and 02134KC (coronary artery, four or more arteries).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02120KC (open).

With a different device, use 021248C (zooplastic tissue), 021249C (autologous venous tissue), 02124AC (autologous arterial tissue), 02124JC (synthetic substitute) and 02124ZC (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 231 (Coronary Bypass with PTCA with MCC), DRG 232 (Coronary Bypass with PTCA without MCC), DRG 233 (Coronary Bypass with Cardiac Catheterization or Open Ablation with MCC), DRG 234 (Coronary Bypass with Cardiac Catheterization or Open Ablation without MCC), DRG 235 (Coronary Bypass without Cardiac Catheterization with MCC) and DRG 236 (Coronary Bypass without Cardiac Catheterization without MCC), under the surgical categories “” and “Coronary Bypass without Cardiac Catheterization”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
