About 02PY4JZ

02PY4JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the great vessel using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of vessel, other thoracic vessels, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.05).

For a different body part, codes include 02PA4JZ (heart).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02PY0JZ (open) and 02PY3JZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 02PY42Z (monitoring device), 02PY43Z (infusion device), 02PY47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 02PY48Z (zooplastic tissue), 02PY4CZ (extraluminal device), 02PY4DZ (intraluminal device) and 2 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
