About 041W4JS

041W4JS 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 vein). 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 041K4JS (right femoral artery), 041L4JS (left femoral artery), 041M4JS (right popliteal artery), 041N4JS (left popliteal artery), 041P4JS (right anterior tibial artery), 041Q4JS (left anterior tibial artery) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 041W0JS (open) and 041W3JS (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 041W49S (autologous venous tissue), 041W4AS (autologous arterial tissue), 041W4KS (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 041W4ZS (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.
