About 02HT03Z
02HT03Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the left pulmonary vein using an open approach with infusion device. 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.
In plain terms, this corresponds to venous catheterization, not elsewhere classified, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.93).
For a different body part, codes include 02H403Z (coronary vein), 02H603Z (right atrium), 02H703Z (left atrium), 02HK03Z (right ventricle), 02HL03Z (left ventricle), 02HP03Z (pulmonary trunk) and 6 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02HT33Z (percutaneous) and 02HT43Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 02HT00Z (monitoring device, pressure sensor), 02HT02Z (monitoring device), 02HT0DZ (intraluminal device) and 02HT0YZ (other device).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
