About 3E0R3SF
3E0R3SF is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the spinal canal using a percutaneous approach with gas (qualifier: other gas). 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 agent into spinal canal, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (03.92).
For a different body part, codes include 3E0C3SF (eye), 3E0E3SF (products of conception), 3E0F3SF (respiratory tract), 3E0G3SF (upper GI), 3E0H3SF (lower GI), 3E0J3SF (biliary and pancreatic tract) and 9 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E0R7SF (via natural or artificial opening).
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.
