Assign the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 02PY33Z Removal of infusion device from great vessel, percutaneous approach, for removal of the infusion portion of the catheter 0JPT0XZ Removal of vascular access device from trunk subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach, for removal of the port
ICD-10-PCS codes: 09SM0ZZ, 09BL0ZZ Rationale: The root operation Reposition is used to code the reposition of the deviated septum. Although cartilage is removed on each side of the septum, the intent of the procedure is to bring the septum back into the midline. Therefore, the root operation Reposition is coded.
ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D49.6 [convert to ICD-9-CM] Neoplasm of unspecified behavior of brain. Disorder of visual cortex associated with neoplasm; Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor; Germ cell tumor of the brain; Neoplasm of brain; Neoplasm of brain, germ cell; Neoplasm, dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial (dnet);
Open approach is cutting through the skin or mucous membrane and any other body layers necessary to expose the site of the procedure. If procedures are performed using the open approach with percutaneous endoscopic assistance or hand-assisted laparoscopy they are coded as open.
Excision of Brain, Open Approach 00B00ZZ ICD-10-PCS code 00B00ZZ for Excision of Brain, Open Approach is a medical classification as listed by CMS under Central Nervous System and Cranial Nerves range.

Resection is similar to excision except it involves cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part. Resection includes all of a body part or any subdivision of a body part having its own body part value in ICD-10-PCS, while excision includes only a portion of a body part.
Root Operation “Resection” This root operation would be selected when the physician removes all of a body part without replacement. When resection of an organ is completed, no portion of that specific organ is left behind.
In ICD-10-PCS, the values 027 specify the section Medical and Surgical (0), the body system Heart and Great Vessels (2) and the root operation Dilation (7).
Use Z codes to code for surgical aftercare. Z47. 89, Encounter for other orthopedic aftercare, and.
Following ICD-10 guidelines, if a patient has or has had an HIV related condition, use B20 AIDS. If the patient has a positive HIV status, without symptoms or related conditions, use Z21.
For example, if a patient with severe degenerative osteoarthritis of the hip, underwent hip replacement and the current encounter/admission is for rehabilitation, report code Z47. 1, Aftercare following joint replacement surgery, as the first-listed or principal diagnosis.
B. Two codes are needed because one site has an intraluminal drug-eluting stent left behind (device) and one does not (no device). A patient has a PTCA performed on two areas of the LAD, with one including a drug-eluting stent.
Two codes are needed because one site has an intraluminal drug-eluting stent left behind (device) and one does not (no device).
A separate procedure is coded for each artery dilated, because the device value differs for each artery.
Ablation of malignant neoplasms can be an alternative to surgical removal. The ablation procedure is always reported as having an open approach.
If PCS contains a specific body part for anatomical subdivision of a body part “resection” would be used when all of the body part is cut out or off. (Lobectomy of RUL of lung would be coded as a resection if all the RUL is removed, even though the entire right lung was not removed).
It is the coder’s responsibility to determine what the physician performed based on the documentation in the record.
If the surgeon states “partial resection” the coder can correlate this to the root operation of “excision.” Be sure and read the entire operative note and review the pathology report for final code assignment.
Answer:#N#The internal jugular tunneled catheter consists of two-parts, an infusion port and catheter. Code the insertion, as well as the removal of both the infusion device and the vascular access device. Assign the following ICD-10-PCS codes: 1 02PY33Z Removal of infusion device from great vessel, percutaneous approach, for removal of the infusion portion of the catheter 2 0JPT0XZ Removal of vascular access device from trunk subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach, for removal of the port 3 02H633Z Insertion of infusion device into right atrium, percutaneous approach, for insertion of catheter
Physician documentation is needed for the intended use of the line and the anatomical site that the catheter ends up.
