About 03PY32Z

03PY32Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the upper artery using a percutaneous approach with monitoring device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other therapeutic device, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.89).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 03PY02Z (open), 03PY42Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 03PYX2Z (external).

With a different device, use 03PY30Z (drainage device), 03PY33Z (infusion device), 03PY37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 03PY3CZ (extraluminal device), 03PY3DZ (intraluminal device), 03PY3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 3 more.

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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