About 02HX40Z
02HX40Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the thoracic aorta, ascending/arch using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with monitoring device, pressure sensor. 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 insertion of intra-aneurysm sac pressure monitoring device (intraoperative), the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (00.58).
For a different body part, codes include 02H440Z (coronary vein), 02H640Z (right atrium), 02H740Z (left atrium), 02HK40Z (right ventricle), 02HL40Z (left ventricle), 02HN40Z (pericardium) and 7 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02HX00Z (open) and 02HX30Z (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 02HX42Z (monitoring device), 02HX43Z (infusion device) and 02HX4DZ (intraluminal device).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
