About 04LE3ZT
04LE3ZT is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the right internal iliac artery using a percutaneous approach (qualifier: right uterine artery). In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to uterine artery embolization [UAE] without coils, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (68.25).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04LE0ZT (open) and 04LE4ZT (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 04LE3CT (extraluminal device) and 04LE3DT (intraluminal device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 749 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 750 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
