About 05QY0ZZ
05QY0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the upper vein 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 vein, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.32).
For a different body part, codes include 05Q00ZZ (azygos vein), 05Q10ZZ (hemiazygos vein), 05Q30ZZ (right innominate vein), 05Q40ZZ (left innominate vein), 05Q50ZZ (right subclavian vein), 05Q60ZZ (left subclavian vein) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 05QY3ZZ (percutaneous) and 05QY4ZZ (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 356 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 357 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 358 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Vascular Procedures”, “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures”, “Other Hepatobiliary or Pancreas O.R. Procedures” and 4 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
