About 3E0Y33Z
3E0Y33Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the pericardial cavity using a percutaneous approach with anti-inflammatory. 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 into thoracic cavity, injection into thoracic cavity and injection of steroid, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (34.92, 34.92 and 99.23).
For a different body part, codes include 3E0133Z (subcutaneous tissue), 3E0233Z (muscle), 3E0333Z (peripheral vein), 3E0433Z (central vein), 3E0533Z (peripheral artery), 3E0633Z (central artery) and 22 more.
With a different device, use 3E0Y36Z (nutritional substance), 3E0Y37Z (electrolytic and water balance substance), 3E0Y3BZ (anesthetic agent), 3E0Y3HZ (radioactive substance), 3E0Y3KZ (other diagnostic substance), 3E0Y3NZ (analgesics, hypnotics, sedatives) and 1 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.
