About 031509T
031509T is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the right axillary artery using an open approach with autologous venous tissue (qualifier: abdominal artery). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.

With a different device, use 03150AT (autologous arterial tissue), 03150JT (synthetic substitute), 03150KT (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 03150ZT (no device).
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) and DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Vascular Procedures”.
