About 04QR0ZZ

04QR0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the right posterior tibial artery using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to suture of artery, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.31).

For a different body part, codes include 04Q00ZZ (abdominal aorta), 04Q10ZZ (celiac artery), 04Q20ZZ (gastric artery), 04Q30ZZ (hepatic artery), 04Q40ZZ (splenic artery), 04Q50ZZ (superior mesenteric artery) and 24 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 04QR3ZZ (percutaneous) and 04QR4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 252 (Other Vascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 253 (Other Vascular Procedures with CC), DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), DRG 580 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with CC) and DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Vascular Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures” and 2 more.

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