About 041W4JQ
041W4JQ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the left foot artery using a percutaneous endoscopic 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.
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 04104JQ (abdominal aorta), 041C4JQ (right common iliac artery), 041D4JQ (left common iliac artery), 041E4JQ (right internal iliac artery), 041F4JQ (left internal iliac artery), 041H4JQ (right external iliac artery) and 12 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 041W0JQ (open) and 041W3JQ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 041W49Q (autologous venous tissue), 041W4AQ (autologous arterial tissue), 041W4KQ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 041W4ZQ (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 was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
