About 4A027FZ
4A027FZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a measurement procedure on the cardiac using a via natural or artificial opening approach with rhythm. In ICD-10-PCS, measurement means determining the level of a physiological or physical function at a point in time.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other nonoperative cardiac and vascular measurements, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (89.59).
For a different body part, codes include 4A0H7FZ (products of conception, cardiac).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 4A020FZ (open), 4A023FZ (percutaneous), 4A028FZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 4A02XFZ (external).
With a different device, use 4A0274Z (electrical activity), 4A0279Z (output), 4A027CZ (rate), 4A027HZ (sound) and 4A027PZ (action currents).
It is a non-O.R. procedure that is part of the MS-DRG logic for DRG 212 (Concomitant Aortic and Mitral Valve Procedures), DRG 216 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization with MCC), DRG 217 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization with CC), DRG 218 (Cardiac Valve and Other Major Cardiothoracic Procedures with Cardiac Catheterization without CC/MCC), DRG 273 (Percutaneous and Other Intracardiac Procedures with MCC) and DRG 274 (Percutaneous and Other Intracardiac Procedures without MCC), under the surgical categories “Concomitant Aortic and Mitral Valve Procedures”, “” and “Percutaneous and Other Intracardiac Procedures”.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
