About 05U44JZ
05U44JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left innominate vein using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to repair of blood vessel with synthetic patch graft, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.57).
For a different body part, codes include 05U04JZ (azygos vein), 05U14JZ (hemiazygos vein), 05U34JZ (right innominate vein), 05U54JZ (right subclavian vein), 05U64JZ (left subclavian vein), 05U74JZ (right axillary vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05U40JZ (open) and 05U43JZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 05U447Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 05U44KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).
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 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Vascular Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
