About 4B02XTZ
4B02XTZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a measurement procedure on the cardiac using an external approach with defibrillator. 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 automatic implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (AICD) check, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (89.49).
With a different device, use 4B02XSZ (pacemaker).
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.
