About 05704ZZ
05704ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a dilation procedure on the azygos vein using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, dilation means expanding an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to procedure on single vessel and angioplasty of other non-coronary vessel(s), the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (00.40 and 39.50).
For a different body part, codes include 05714ZZ (hemiazygos vein), 05734ZZ (right innominate vein), 05744ZZ (left innominate vein), 05754ZZ (right subclavian vein), 05764ZZ (left subclavian vein), 05774ZZ (right axillary vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05700ZZ (open) and 05703ZZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 05704DZ (intraluminal 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 has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
