About 02UX07Z

02UX07Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the thoracic aorta, ascending/arch using an open approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to repair of blood vessel with tissue patch graft, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.56).

For a different body part, codes include 02U007Z (coronary artery, one artery), 02U107Z (coronary artery, two arteries), 02U207Z (coronary artery, three arteries), 02U307Z (coronary artery, four or more arteries), 02U507Z (atrial septum), 02U607Z (right atrium) and 19 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02UX37Z (percutaneous) and 02UX47Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 02UX08Z (zooplastic tissue), 02UX0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 02UX0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 252 (Other Vascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 253 (Other Vascular Procedures with CC), DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Vascular Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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