About 02FN4ZZ
02FN4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fragmentation procedure on the pericardium using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, fragmentation means breaking solid matter in a body part into pieces.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of heart and pericardium, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (37.49).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02FN0ZZ (open), 02FN3ZZ (percutaneous) and 02FNXZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC), DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
