About 031209Y
031209Y is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the innominate artery using an open approach with autologous venous tissue (qualifier: upper artery). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.
For a different body part, codes include 031H09Y (right common carotid artery) and 031J09Y (left common carotid artery).
With a different device, use 03120AY (autologous arterial tissue), 03120JY (synthetic substitute), 03120KY (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 03120ZY (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 209 (Complex Aortic Arch Procedures), DRG 252 (Other Vascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 253 (Other Vascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Complex Aortic Arch Procedures” and “Other Vascular Procedures”.
