About 3E050FZ

3E050FZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the peripheral artery using an open approach with intracirculatory anesthetic. 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 injection or infusion of other therapeutic or prophylactic substance, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.29).

For a different body part, codes include 3E030FZ (peripheral vein), 3E040FZ (central vein) and 3E060FZ (central artery).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E053FZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 3E0503Z (anti-inflammatory), 3E0504Z (serum, toxoid and vaccine), 3E0506Z (nutritional substance), 3E0507Z (electrolytic and water balance substance), 3E050HZ (radioactive substance), 3E050KZ (other diagnostic substance) and 5 more.

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.
