Yes, you are correct. In the published example, a subcutaneous pocket was created under direct visualization in order to place the vascular access port, and therefore the approach is “open” for that portion of the procedure. In addition, a totally implantable central venous access device is a two-part device; therefore two ICD-10-PCS codes are required to capture insertion of the device.
