About 04904ZZ
04904ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the abdominal aorta using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other puncture of artery, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.98).
For a different body part, codes include 04914ZZ (celiac artery), 04924ZZ (gastric artery), 04934ZZ (hepatic artery), 04944ZZ (splenic artery), 04954ZZ (superior mesenteric artery), 04964ZZ (right colic artery) and 24 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04900ZZ (open) and 04903ZZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 049040Z (drainage device).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
