About 041H0AC
041H0AC is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the right external iliac artery using an open approach with autologous arterial tissue (qualifier: bilateral internal iliac arteries). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other intra-abdominal vascular shunt or bypass, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.26).
For a different body part, codes include 04100AC (abdominal aorta), 041C0AC (right common iliac artery), 041D0AC (left common iliac artery), 041E0AC (right internal iliac artery), 041F0AC (left internal iliac artery) and 041J0AC (left external iliac artery).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 041H4AC (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 041H09C (autologous venous tissue), 041H0JC (synthetic substitute), 041H0KC (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 041H0ZC (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
