About 021349W
021349W is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the coronary artery, four or more arteries using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous venous tissue (qualifier: aorta). 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 (Aorto)coronary bypass of four or more coronary arteries, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (36.14).
For a different body part, codes include 021049W (coronary artery, one artery), 021149W (coronary artery, two arteries) and 021249W (coronary artery, three arteries).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 021309W (open).
With a different device, use 021348W (zooplastic tissue), 02134AW (autologous arterial tissue), 02134JW (synthetic substitute) and 02134KW (nonautologous tissue substitute).
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.
