About 02RF3JZ

02RF3JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the aortic valve using a percutaneous approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to endovascular replacement of aortic valve, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (35.05).

For a different body part, codes include 02RG3JZ (mitral valve), 02RH3JZ (pulmonary valve) and 02RJ3JZ (tricuspid valve).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 02RF0JZ (open) and 02RF4JZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 02RF37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 02RF38Z (zooplastic tissue) and 02RF3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 266 (Endovascular Cardiac Valve Replacement and Supplement Procedures with MCC) and DRG 267 (Endovascular Cardiac Valve Replacement and Supplement Procedures without MCC), under the surgical category “Endovascular Cardiac Valve Replacement and Supplement Procedures”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
