About 06R007Z
06R007Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the inferior vena cava using an open approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to resection of vessel with replacement, abdominal veins, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (38.47).
For a different body part, codes include 06R107Z (splenic vein), 06R207Z (gastric vein), 06R307Z (esophageal vein), 06R407Z (hepatic vein), 06R507Z (superior mesenteric vein), 06R607Z (inferior mesenteric vein) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06R047Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 06R00JZ (synthetic substitute) and 06R00KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 270 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 271 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 272 (Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
