About 4A0HX4Z

4A0HX4Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a measurement procedure on the products of conception, cardiac using an external approach with electrical activity. In ICD-10-PCS, measurement means determining the level of a physiological or physical function at a point in time.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other fetal monitoring, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (75.34).

For a different body part, codes include 4A00X4Z (central nervous), 4A01X4Z (peripheral nervous), 4A02X4Z (cardiac) and 4A0JX4Z (products of conception, nervous).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 4A0H74Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 4A0H84Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 4A0HXCZ (rate), 4A0HXFZ (rhythm) and 4A0HXHZ (sound).

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.
