ICD-10-PCS (Procedure Codes) has been developed as a replacement for Volume 3 of the ICD-9-CM. ICD-10-PCS has a 7 character alpha-numeric code structure that provides a unique code for all substantially different procedures, and allows new procedures to be incorporated as new codes. All procedures currently performed can be specified in ICD-10-PCS.
ICD-10-PCS Sections. The 1st character of the code identifies the section. Sections relate to the type of procedure. For example, a chest x-ray is an imaging procedure and a breast biopsy is a medical and surgical procedure.
ICD-10-PCS is a procedure classification published by the United States for classifying procedures performed in hospital inpatient health care settings. 5 Extracorporeal or Systemic Assistance and Performance

While Monitored Anesthesia Care may include the administration of sedatives and/or analgesics often used for Moderate Sedation, the qualified anesthesia provider of MAC is focused exclusively and continuously on the patient for any attendant airway, hemodynamic and physiologic derangements.
