About 041M3JQ
041M3JQ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the right popliteal artery using a percutaneous approach with synthetic substitute (qualifier: lower extremity artery). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.
For a different body part, codes include 041K3JQ (right femoral artery), 041L3JQ (left femoral artery), 041N3JQ (left popliteal artery), 041P3JQ (right anterior tibial artery), 041Q3JQ (left anterior tibial artery), 041R3JQ (right posterior tibial artery) and 5 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 041M0JQ (open) and 041M4JQ (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) and DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Vascular Procedures”.
It was added in FY2019, effective October 1, 2018.
