About 4A127CZ

4A127CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a monitoring procedure on the cardiac using a via natural or artificial opening approach with rate. In ICD-10-PCS, monitoring means determining the level of a physiological or physical function repetitively over a period of time.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other nonoperative cardiac and vascular measurements, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (89.59).

For a different body part, codes include 4A197CZ (respiratory) and 4A1H7CZ (products of conception, cardiac).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 4A120CZ (open), 4A123CZ (percutaneous), 4A128CZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 4A12XCZ (external).

With a different device, use 4A1274Z (electrical activity), 4A1279Z (output), 4A127FZ (rhythm) and 4A127HZ (sound).

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

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
