About 3E06016

3E06016 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the central artery using an open approach with thrombolytic (qualifier: recombinant human-activated protein c). 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 infusion of drotrecogin alfa (activated), the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (00.11).

For a different body part, codes include 3E03016 (peripheral vein), 3E04016 (central vein), 3E05016 (peripheral artery), 3E07016 (coronary artery) and 3E08016 (heart).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E06316 (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.
