About 04PY3YZ
04PY3YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the lower artery using a percutaneous approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of vessel, lower limb arteries, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.08).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04PY0YZ (open) and 04PY4YZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 04PY30Z (drainage device), 04PY32Z (monitoring device), 04PY33Z (infusion device), 04PY37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 04PY3CZ (extraluminal device), 04PY3DZ (intraluminal device) and 2 more.
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
