About 02RF38N

02RF38N is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the aortic valve using a percutaneous approach with zooplastic tissue (qualifier: rapid deployment technique). In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 266 (Endovascular Cardiac Valve Replacement and Supplement Procedures with MCC) and DRG 267 (Endovascular Cardiac Valve Replacement and Supplement Procedures without MCC), under the surgical category “Endovascular Cardiac Valve Replacement and Supplement Procedures”.
