About 02HM3JZ

02HM3JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the ventricular septum using a percutaneous approach with cardiac lead, pacemaker. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

For a different body part, codes include 02H43JZ (coronary vein), 02H63JZ (right atrium), 02H73JZ (left atrium), 02HK3JZ (right ventricle), 02HL3JZ (left ventricle) and 02HN3JZ (pericardium).

With a different device, use 02HM3KZ (cardiac lead, defibrillator), 02HM3MZ (cardiac lead), 02HM3NZ (intracardiac pacemaker) and 02HM3YZ (other device).

It is a non-O.R. procedure that is part of the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator), DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 210 (Cardiac Pacemaker Revision or Device Replacement with MCC), DRG 211 (Cardiac Pacemaker Revision or Device Replacement without MCC) and DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Cardiac Pacemaker Revision or Device Replacement”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 2 more.

It was added in FY2027, effective October 1, 2026.
