About 059P30Z
059P30Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the right external jugular vein using a percutaneous approach with drainage device. 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 vein, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.99).
For a different body part, codes include 059030Z (azygos vein), 059130Z (hemiazygos vein), 059330Z (right innominate vein), 059430Z (left innominate vein), 059530Z (right subclavian vein), 059630Z (left subclavian vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 059P00Z (open) and 059P40Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 059P3ZZ (no 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.
