About 02PA33Z
02PA33Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the heart using a percutaneous approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other device from thorax, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.49).
For a different body part, codes include 02PY33Z (great vessel).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02PA03Z (open), 02PA43Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 02PAX3Z (external).
With a different device, use 02PA32Z (monitoring device), 02PA37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 02PA38Z (zooplastic tissue), 02PA3CZ (extraluminal device), 02PA3DZ (intraluminal device), 02PA3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 6 more.
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.
