About 05W43MZ
05W43MZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left innominate vein using a percutaneous approach with neurostimulator lead. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
In plain terms, this corresponds to implantation or replacement of peripheral neurostimulator lead(s), the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (04.92).
For a different body part, codes include 05W03MZ (azygos vein) and 05W33MZ (right innominate vein).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05W40MZ (open), 05W44MZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 05W4XMZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator) and DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”.
It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
