One challenging coding area with the ICD-10 transition is the coding of venous and arterial lines and catheters. This article aims to provide greater clarity with regard to procedure coding tips for coding of venous catheters.

Answer:#N#A peritoneal port-a-cath is a small reservoir that is surgically implanted into the subcutaneous tissue of the abdomen. The device can be used to deliver antineoplastic medications, or withdraw excessive fluid from the peritoneal cavity through a catheter connected to the port. In this case the port is being inserted into the abdominal subcutaneous tissue and fascia, not the chest wall. Two codes are assigned, one for the catheter and the other for the peritoneal port. Since ICD-10-PCS does not provide a specific code for the insertion of the peritoneal port, the closest available equivalent is “Insertion of reservoir into abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia.” Assign the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 1 0WHG33Z Insertion of infusion device into peritoneal cavity, percutaneous approach, for the catheter insertion 2 0JH80WZ Insertion of reservoir into abdomen subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach, for insertion of the peritoneal port
Arterial Line - (also known as: a-line or art-line) a thin catheter inserted into an artery; most commonly radial, ulnar, brachial, or dorsalis pedis artery. Most frequent care settings are intensive care unit or anesthesia when frequent blood draws or blood pressure monitoring are needed.
Types of Lines: Central Lines - (CVC)- Central Venous Catheter or central lines are inserted into large veins, typically the jugular, subclavian, or femoral vein. Common uses are for medication and fluid administration.
The following crosswalk between ICD-10-PCS to ICD-9-PCS is based based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMS) information:

It is the responsibility of the provider to code to the highest level specified in the ICD-10-CM. The correct use of an ICD-10-CM code listed below does not assure coverage of a service. The service must be reasonable and necessary in the specific case and must meet the criteria specified in this determination.
Contractors may specify Bill Types to help providers identify those Bill Types typically used to report this service. Absence of a Bill Type does not guarantee that the article does not apply to that Bill Type.
Contractors may specify Revenue Codes to help providers identify those Revenue Codes typically used to report this service. In most instances Revenue Codes are purely advisory. Unless specified in the article, services reported under other Revenue Codes are equally subject to this coverage determination.
