About 3E0970M
3E0970M is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the nose using a via natural or artificial opening approach with antineoplastic (qualifier: monoclonal antibody). 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 biological response modifier [BRM] as an antineoplastic agent, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.28).
For a different body part, codes include 3E0B70M (ear), 3E0C70M (eye), 3E0D70M (mouth and pharynx), 3E0E70M (products of conception), 3E0F70M (respiratory tract), 3E0G70M (upper GI) and 9 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E0930M (percutaneous) and 3E09X0M (external).
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.
