About 03SC0ZZ

03SC0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the left radial artery using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of vessel, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.59).

For a different body part, codes include 03S00ZZ (right internal mammary artery), 03S10ZZ (left internal mammary artery), 03S20ZZ (innominate artery), 03S30ZZ (right subclavian artery), 03S40ZZ (left subclavian artery), 03S50ZZ (right axillary artery) and 23 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 03SC3ZZ (percutaneous) and 03SC4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

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), DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), DRG 580 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with CC) and DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Vascular Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
