About 05SC0ZZ
05SC0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the left basilic vein using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of vessel, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.59).
For a different body part, codes include 05S00ZZ (azygos vein), 05S10ZZ (hemiazygos vein), 05S30ZZ (right innominate vein), 05S40ZZ (left innominate vein), 05S50ZZ (right subclavian vein), 05S60ZZ (left subclavian vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05SC3ZZ (percutaneous) and 05SC4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
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), DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), DRG 580 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with CC) and DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Vascular Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures”, “Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures” and 2 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
