About 02WA0JZ
02WA0JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the heart using an open approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
In plain terms, this corresponds to replacement or repair of thoracic unit of (total) replacement heart system and replacement or repair of other implantable component of (total) replacement heart system, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (37.53 and 37.54).
For a different body part, codes include 02W50JZ (atrial septum), 02WF0JZ (aortic valve), 02WG0JZ (mitral valve), 02WH0JZ (pulmonary valve), 02WJ0JZ (tricuspid valve), 02WM0JZ (ventricular septum) and 1 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02WA3JZ (percutaneous), 02WA4JZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 02WAXJZ (external).
With a different device, use 02WA02Z (monitoring device), 02WA03Z (infusion device), 02WA07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 02WA08Z (zooplastic tissue), 02WA0CZ (extraluminal device), 02WA0DZ (intraluminal device) and 6 more.
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 215 (Other Heart Assist System Implant), under the surgical category “Other Heart Assist System Implant”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
