About 3E050VJ
3E050VJ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the peripheral artery using an open approach with hormone (qualifier: other hormone). 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 of other hormone, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.24).
For a different body part, codes include 3E030VJ (peripheral vein), 3E040VJ (central vein) and 3E060VJ (central artery).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E053VJ (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.
