About 041M0AL
041M0AL is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the right popliteal artery using an open approach with autologous arterial tissue (qualifier: popliteal artery). 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 (peripheral) vascular shunt or bypass, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.29).
For a different body part, codes include 041K0AL (right femoral artery), 041L0AL (left femoral artery) and 041N0AL (left popliteal artery).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 041M4AL (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 041M09L (autologous venous tissue), 041M0JL (synthetic substitute), 041M0KL (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 041M0ZL (no device).
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) and DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Vascular Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
