About 02ND0ZZ
02ND0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a release procedure on the papillary muscle using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, release means freeing a body part from an abnormal physical constraint by cutting or by the use of force.
In plain terms, this corresponds to operations on papillary muscle, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (35.31).
For a different body part, codes include 02N00ZZ (coronary artery, one artery), 02N10ZZ (coronary artery, two arteries), 02N20ZZ (coronary artery, three arteries), 02N30ZZ (coronary artery, four or more arteries), 02N40ZZ (coronary vein), 02N50ZZ (atrial septum) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02ND3ZZ (percutaneous) and 02ND4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 228 (Other Cardiothoracic Procedures with MCC) and DRG 229 (Other Cardiothoracic Procedures without MCC), under the surgical category “Other Cardiothoracic Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
