02RK0JZ

Replacement of Right Ventricle with Synth Sub, Open Approach

V44.0 O.R. procedure Procedure cluster member

An operating room procedure. An O.R. procedure drives DRG assignment on its own, so it can change the MDC and MS-DRG regardless of the principal diagnosis. It is also part of a procedure cluster, meaning certain combinations group differently than this code does alone.

MDC assignment

This code appears under more than one MDC. Which applies depends on the rest of the encounter, so group the claim to settle it.

MDC 05 Diseases and Disorders of the Circulatory System
Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures
MDC 21 Injuries, Poisonings and Toxic Effects of Drugs
Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries
