An aortic valve replacement is a type of open heart surgery used to treat problems with the heart's aortic valve. The aortic valve controls the flow of blood out from the heart to the rest of the body.
Z95.2ICD-10 code Z95. 2 for Presence of prosthetic heart valve is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
In this procedure, surgeons insert a catheter into the leg or chest and guide it to the heart. A replacement valve is inserted through the catheter and guided to the heart. A balloon is expanded to press the valve into place. Some TAVR valves are self-expanding.
Follow-up. The difference between aftercare and follow-up is the type of care the physician renders. Aftercare implies the physician is providing related treatment for the patient after a surgery or procedure. Follow-up, on the other hand, is surveillance of the patient to make sure all is going well.
Z09 ICD 10 codes should be used for diseases or disroder other than malignant neoplasm which has been completed treatment. For example, any history of disease should be coded with Z08 ICD 10 code as primary followed by the history of disease code.
1 (aftercare following joint replacement surgery) is used during the follow-up phase of any joint replacement surgery, even if the replacement was for treatment of a fracture. It must be accompanied by a code from subcategory Z96. 6, which identifies the specific joint location and laterality (Table 1).
Aftercare codes are found in categories Z42-Z49 and Z51. Aftercare is one of the 16 types of Z-codes covered in the 2012 ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines and Reporting. Aftercare visit codes cover situations occurring when the initial treatment of a disease has been performed and the patient requires continued care during the healing or recovery phase, or care for the long-term consequences of the disease.
Aftercare codes should be used in conjunction with other aftercare codes, diagnosis codes and/or other categories of Z-codes to provide better detail on the specifics of the aftercare encounter/visit, unless otherwise directed by the classification.
Aftercare following explantation of a joint prosthesis is reported with a code from category Z47, denoting orthopedic aftercare. Aftercare following explantation of a joint prosthesis (Z47.3-) may be reported for a staged procedure or an encounter for evaluation of planned insertion of a new joint prosthesis following prior explantation of a joint prosthesis. In ICD-10-CM, aftercare for explantation of a joint prosthesis is specific to site.
Aftercare for injuries is reported with a V-code in ICD-9-CM. However, aftercare of injuries in ICD-10-CM is captured with the seventh character “D,” specifically denoting routine care following most injuries. For fractures, additional seventh characters for subsequent encounters apply, depending on whether the fracture is open or closed and whether the healing is routine or delayed, with nonunion or malunion.
The codes for factors influencing health and contact with health services represent reasons for encounters. In ICD-10-CM, these codes are located in Chapter 21 and have the initial alpha character of “Z,” so codes in this chapter eventually may be referred to as “Z-codes” (just as the same supplementary codes in ICD-9-CM were referred to as “V-codes”). While code descriptions in Chapter 21, such as aftercare, may appear to denote descriptions of services or procedures, they are not procedure codes. These codes represent the reason for the encounter, service or visit, and the procedure must be reported with the appropriate procedure code.
Codes for encounters for antineoplastic radiation, chemotherapy and immunotherapy (Z51.0, Z51.1-) are assigned if the sole reason for the encounter is antineoplastic therapy – even if the patient still has the neoplastic disease.
When the reason for an encounter is aftercare following a procedure or injury, the 2012 ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines and Reporting should be consulted to ensure that the correct code is assigned. Codes for reporting most types of aftercare are found in Chapter 21. However, aftercare related to injuries is reported with codes from Chapter 19, using seventh-character extensions to identify the service as aftercare.
