About 5A1221J

5A1221J is the ICD-10-PCS code for a performance procedure on the cardiac using a continuous approach with output (qualifier: automated). In ICD-10-PCS, performance means completely taking over a physiological function by extracorporeal means.

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 FY2022, effective October 1, 2021.
