About 02C04ZZ
02C04ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the coronary artery, one artery using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other removal of coronary artery obstruction, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (36.09).
For a different body part, codes include 02C14ZZ (coronary artery, two arteries), 02C24ZZ (coronary artery, three arteries), 02C34ZZ (coronary artery, four or more arteries), 02C44ZZ (coronary vein), 02C54ZZ (atrial septum), 02C64ZZ (right atrium) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02C00ZZ (open) and 02C03ZZ (percutaneous).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 318 (Percutaneous Coronary Atherectomy without Intraluminal Device), DRG 359 (Percutaneous Coronary Atherectomy with Intraluminal Device with MCC) and DRG 360 (Percutaneous Coronary Atherectomy with Intraluminal Device without MCC), under the surgical categories “Percutaneous Coronary Atherectomy without Intraluminal Device” and “Percutaneous Coronary Atherectomy with Intraluminal Device”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
