About 03LP0DZ

03LP0DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the right vertebral artery using an open approach with intraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to endovascular embolization or occlusion of vessel(s) of head or neck using bare coils, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.75).

For a different body part, codes include 03L00DZ (right internal mammary artery), 03L10DZ (left internal mammary artery), 03L20DZ (innominate artery), 03L30DZ (right subclavian artery), 03L40DZ (left subclavian artery), 03L50DZ (right axillary artery) and 23 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 03LP3DZ (percutaneous) and 03LP4DZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 03LP0BZ (intraluminal device, bioactive), 03LP0CZ (extraluminal device) and 03LP0ZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 020 (Intracranial Vascular Procedures with Principal Diagnosis Hemorrhage with MCC), DRG 021 (Intracranial Vascular Procedures with Principal Diagnosis Hemorrhage with CC), DRG 022 (Intracranial Vascular Procedures with Principal Diagnosis Hemorrhage without CC/MCC), DRG 023 (Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis with MCC or Antineoplastic Implant or Epilepsy with Neurostimulator), DRG 024 (Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis without MCC) and DRG 025 (Craniotomy and Endovascular Intracranial Procedures with MCC), under the surgical categories “Intracranial Vascular Procedures with Principal Diagnosis Hemorrhage”, “Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis”, “Craniotomy and endovascular intracranial procedures” and 4 more.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
