About 03HY0YZ

03HY0YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the upper artery using an open approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on vessels, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.99).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 03HY3YZ (percutaneous) and 03HY4YZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 03HY02Z (monitoring device), 03HY03Z (infusion device) and 03HY0DZ (intraluminal 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”.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
