About 03VR3DZ
03VR3DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the face artery using a percutaneous approach with intraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially 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 03V03DZ (right internal mammary artery), 03V13DZ (left internal mammary artery), 03V23DZ (innominate artery), 03V33DZ (right subclavian artery), 03V43DZ (left subclavian artery), 03V53DZ (right axillary artery) and 23 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 03VR0DZ (open) and 03VR4DZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 03VR3CZ (extraluminal device) and 03VR3ZZ (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.
