Post-operative visits should be reported with CPT code 99024 when the visit is furnished on the same day as an unrelated E/M service (billed with modifier 24).
ORIF utilizes open surgery to set the fracture followed by the use of plates, pins, and screws to hold the bones in place. THA involves surgically removing both the femoral head and acetabular cartilage, and replacing them with an artificial femoral head and acetabular cup.
Aftercare visit codes cover situations when the initial treatment of a disease has been performed and the patient requires continued care during the healing or recovery phase, or for the long-term consequences of the disease. Post-op care is different from aftercare.
Open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) is a surgery to fix severely broken bones. It's only used for serious fractures that can't be treated with a cast or splint. These injuries are usually fractures that are displaced, unstable, or those that involve the joint.

The classic first step in coding is to read the guidelines, but in the case of many ICD-10-PCS guidelines, starting there may prove to be confusing and frustrating. I’ve always been a big fan of learning the “why” behind the “what,” and when it comes to coding and coding guidelines, I like to identify the method behind the madness. The madness I’d like to address in this article relates to ICD-10-PCS coding guidelines for arterial bypass procedures.
B3.6a: Bypass procedures are coded by identifying the body part bypassed “from” and the body part bypassed “to.” The fourth character body part specifies the body part bypassed from, and the qualifier specifies the body part bypassed to.
Rationale: Two of the arteries were bypassed using a saphenous vein graft from the aorta. The other artery was bypassed using a pedicle LIMA graft. Since two of the arteries had a different device and qualifier than the other, two codes are necessary when we apply coding guideline B3.6c.
I mentioned two main types of CABG: aortocoronary and mammary graft. In an aortocoronary bypass, a connection is made from the aorta to the coronary artery using a free graft. That free graft can be made of arterial or venous tissue obtained from the patient (autologous), cadaver tissue (nonautologous), animal tissue (zooplastic), or synthetic material. The most common type of free graft comes from the saphenous vein from the patient’s leg. Pedicled grafts may also be used, where an artery is detached from its distal point and rerouted to the coronary arteries. This is most commonly achieved using the internal mammary arteries. It is not uncommon for a single operative session to include bypass of multiple coronary arteries using multiple devices.
B3.6b: Coronary artery bypass procedures are coded differently than other bypass procedures as described in the previous guideline. Rather than identifying the body part bypassed from, the body part identifies the number of coronary arteries bypassed to, and the qualifier specifies the vessel bypassed from.
The ICD-10-PCS definition of the root operation Bypass is “altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.” In the case of the arterial system, the tubes are the arteries of the heart, as well as noncoronary circulation. The term “bypass” isn’t unique to the medical profession. We talk about bypasses in traffic or figurative bypasses at work when we develop “workarounds” to circumvent a problem. An arterial bypass is no different: there is a blockage we need to get around, and to do that, we must make a new pathway.
So, let’s briefly talk about anatomy and blood flow. The center of the circulatory system is the heart. Blood leaves the left side of the heart through the main artery, the aorta, which connects to other arteries. The arterial mission is simple: deliver oxygen-rich blood to the body’s organ and tissues.

Remember, there are a number of orthopedic aftercare codes for specific surgeries—all of which you can find in the ICD-10 tabular list under Z47, Orthopedic aftercare.
Z codes also apply to post-op care when the condition that precipitated the surgery no longer exists —but the patient still requires therapeutic care to return to a healthy level of function. In situations like these, ICD-10 provides a few coding options, including:
For example, if you were treating a patient who had a total knee replacement, you would want to submit Z47.1, Aftercare following joint replacement surgery, as well as Z96.651 (to indicate that the joint replaced was the knee). Taking this one step further, let’s say the patient was receiving treatment for gait abnormality following a total knee replacement of the right knee due to osteoarthritis in that knee. Let’s also assume that, as a result of the surgery, the patient is no longer suffering from osteoarthritis. The appropriate codes for this scenario, according to this presentation, would be:
If the line between acceptable and unacceptable uses of aftercare codes still seems a bit fuzzy, just remember that in most cases, you should only use aftercare codes if there’s no other way for you to express that a patient is on the “after” side of an aforementioned “before-and-after” event.
For the patients under gone Aortic valve replacement will be on long term anticoagulation therapy .
ICD-10 introduced the seventh character to streamline the way providers denote different encounter types—namely, those in volving active treatment versus those involving subsequent care. However, not all ICD-10 diagnosis codes include the option to add a seventh character. For example, most of the codes contained in chapter 13 of the tabular list (a.k.a. the musculoskeletal chapter) do not allow for seventh characters. And that makes sense considering that most of those codes represent conditions—including bone, joint, or muscle conditions that are recurrent or resulting from a healed injury—for which therapy treatment does progress in the same way it does for acute injuries.
You should add any comorbidities that may impact the rehab episode of care. You should not include osteoarthritis in the diagnostic set unless it affects other joints that will affect the episode." I hope that's helpful!
