02QF0ZJRepair Aortic Valve created from Truncal Valve, Open Approach

02QF0ZJ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the aortic valve using an open approach (qualifier: truncal valve). In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on valves of heart, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (35.99).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02QF3ZJ (percutaneous) and 02QF4ZJ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 212 (Concomitant Aortic and Mitral Valve Procedures), DRG 216 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization with MCC), DRG 217 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization with CC), DRG 218 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization without CC/MCC), DRG 219 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures without Cardiac Catheterization with MCC) and DRG 220 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures without Cardiac Catheterization with CC), under the surgical categories “Concomitant Aortic and Mitral Valve Procedures”, “” and “Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures without Cardiac Catheterization”.

It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
