About 3E0M3HZ

3E0M3HZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the peritoneal cavity using a percutaneous approach with radioactive substance. In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.

In plain terms, this corresponds to injection of locally-acting therapeutic substance into peritoneal cavity, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (54.97).

For a different body part, codes include 3E013HZ (subcutaneous tissue), 3E023HZ (muscle), 3E033HZ (peripheral vein), 3E043HZ (central vein), 3E053HZ (peripheral artery), 3E063HZ (central artery) and 20 more.

With a different device, use 3E0M33Z (anti-inflammatory), 3E0M35Z (adhesion barrier), 3E0M36Z (nutritional substance), 3E0M37Z (electrolytic and water balance substance), 3E0M3BZ (anesthetic agent), 3E0M3KZ (other diagnostic substance) and 2 more.

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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