About 0JH60AZ

0JH60AZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, chest using an open approach with contractility modulation device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to implantation or replacement of cardiac contractility modulation [CCM] rechargeable pulse generator only, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (17.52).

For a different body part, codes include 0JH80AZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, abdomen).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JH63AZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0JH600Z (monitoring device, hemodynamic), 0JH602Z (monitoring device), 0JH604Z (pacemaker, single chamber), 0JH605Z (pacemaker, single chamber rate responsive), 0JH606Z (pacemaker, dual chamber), 0JH607Z (cardiac resynchronization pacemaker pulse generator) and 15 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 245 (AICD Generator Procedures), under the surgical category “AICD Generator Procedures”.

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