About 0271046
0271046 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a dilation procedure on the coronary artery, two arteries using an open approach with intraluminal device, drug-eluting (qualifier: bifurcation). In ICD-10-PCS, dilation means expanding an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to procedure on two vessels, procedure on vessel bifurcation, insertion of one vascular stent and 2 more, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (00.41, 00.44, 00.45 and 2 more).
For a different body part, codes include 0270046 (coronary artery, one artery), 0272046 (coronary artery, three arteries) and 0273046 (coronary artery, four or more arteries).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0271346 (percutaneous) and 0271446 (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0271056 (intraluminal device, drug-eluting, two), 0271066 (intraluminal device, drug-eluting, three), 0271076 (intraluminal device, drug-eluting, four or more), 02710D6 (intraluminal device), 02710E6 (intraluminal device, two), 02710F6 (intraluminal device, three) and 3 more.
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 228 (Other Cardiothoracic Procedures with MCC) and DRG 229 (Other Cardiothoracic Procedures without MCC), under the surgical category “Other Cardiothoracic Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
