About 3E0102A

3E0102A is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the subcutaneous tissue using an open approach with anti-infective (qualifier: anti-infective envelope). In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.

In plain terms, this corresponds to insertion of antimicrobial envelope, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (17.81).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E0132A (percutaneous).

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.
