About 06703ZZ

06703ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a dilation procedure on the inferior vena cava using a percutaneous 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 06713ZZ (splenic vein), 06723ZZ (gastric vein), 06733ZZ (esophageal vein), 06743ZZ (hepatic vein), 06753ZZ (superior mesenteric vein), 06763ZZ (inferior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06700ZZ (open) and 06704ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 06703DZ (intraluminal device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 037 (Extracranial Procedures with MCC), DRG 038 (Extracranial Procedures with CC), DRG 039 (Extracranial Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 166 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 167 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 168 (Other Respiratory System O.R.
