About 06H033Z
06H033Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the inferior vena cava using a percutaneous approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to venous catheterization, not elsewhere classified, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.93).
For a different body part, codes include 06H133Z (splenic vein), 06H233Z (gastric vein), 06H333Z (esophageal vein), 06H433Z (hepatic vein), 06H533Z (superior mesenteric vein), 06H633Z (inferior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06H003Z (open) and 06H043Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 06H03DZ (intraluminal 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.
