About 06HP03Z
06HP03Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right saphenous vein using an open 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 and venous cutdown, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (38.93 and 38.94).
For a different body part, codes include 06H003Z (inferior vena cava), 06H103Z (splenic vein), 06H203Z (gastric vein), 06H303Z (esophageal vein), 06H403Z (hepatic vein), 06H503Z (superior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06HP33Z (percutaneous) and 06HP43Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 06HP0DZ (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.
