Effective Date

ICD-10 went into effect October 1, 2015.

ICD-10-CM for diagnosis codes and ICD-10-PCS for procedure codes go into effect together on the same date.

ICD-10 is effective by date of discharge, not by date of admission.

Use of ICD-10 in the United States was formally proposed in August 2008 and finalized in January 2009.

Implementation of ICD-10 was initially scheduled for October 2013 and has been postponed twice since then.

General Equivalence MappingsGeneral Equivalence Mappings (GEMs) are useful tools for going back-and-forth between ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes, for both diagnoses and procedures.

Forward GEMs go from ICD-9 to ICD-10; Backward GEMs go from ICD-10 to ICD-9.

The GEMs can be found at: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/icd/icd10cm.htm#icd2105

GEMs can be a good starting place. But NCHS and CMS strongly recommend coding directly from the ICD-10 codebooks, as studies have consistently indicated that this is most accurate.

Volume of Diagnosis Codes

ICD-9-CM14,567 codesICD-10-CM

69,823 codes

ICD-10-CM has far more diagnosis codes than ICD-9-CM and provides a greater level of specificity.

Example: Non-rheumatic aortic valve disordersICD-9-CM ICD-10-CM

424.1 Aortic valve disorders

I35.0 Non-rheumatic aortic (valve) stenosisI35.1 Non-rheumatic aortic (valve) insufficiency (regurgitation)I35.2 Non-rheumatic aortic (valve) stenosis with insufficiencyI35.8 Other non-rheumatic aortic valve disordersI35.9 Non-rheumatic aortic valve disorder, unspecified

Valve Disorders

Valve disease with involvement of multiple valves (aortic, mitral, tricuspid) is coded as rheumatic whether documented as rheumatic or not.

Aortic valve stenosis and pulmonary valve disorders default to non-rheumatic.

Mitral valve stenosis and tricuspid valve disorders default to rheumatic.

Page 13: Medtronic Structural Heart ICD-10 Coding for Hospitals · ICD-10 went into effect October 1, 2015. ICD-10-CM for diagnosis codes and ICD-10-PCS for procedure codes go into effect

13

Angina and Coronary Artery Disease Angina codes (I20) are not assigned separately if the patient

also has CAD. A combination code is used instead.

A cause-and-effect relationship between angina and CAD can be assumed.1

1. ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting (Diagnoses), FY 2015, p.42

Does the patient also have angina? What kind of vessel has coronary atherosclerosis? What kind of angina?

To code CAD in ICD-10-CM, the coder must know three things:

Code Description Notes

I25.10 Atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery without angina pectoris Use for CAD or ASHD NOS without angina

I25.119 Atherosclerotic heart disease of native coronary artery with unspecified angina pectoris Use for CAD or ASHD NOS with angina

I25.709 Atherosclerosis of coronary artery bypass graft(s), unspecified, with unspecified angina pectoris Use for CAD or ASHD with CABG with angina

14

Device Complications Mechanical complication is defined the same way in ICD-10-CM

as it is in ICD-9-CM.

ICD-10-CM differentiates between mechanical complications of artificial valves and tissue valves.

Code Description Notes

T82.01xA Breakdown (mechanical) of heart valve prosthesis, initial encounter Artificial valve devices (metallic)

T82.221A Breakdown (mechanical) of biological heart valve graft, initial encounter

Tissue valve devices, including bio-prosthetics

Occlusion of a coronary artery bypass graft due to atherosclerosis is not coded as a complication. Use I25.7 instead.2

2. AHA ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS Coding Handbook, FY 2015, p.535

ICD-10-CM has a specific code for infection of heart valve device.Code Description Notes

T82.6xxA Infection and inflammatory reaction due to cardiac valve prosthesis, initial encounter Heart valve devices (any type)

T82.7xxA Infection and inflammatory reaction due to other cardiac and vascular devices, implants, and grafts, initial encounter All other cardiac devices

For other (non-mechanical) complications, ICD-10-CM differentiates the type of complication but not the type of device.

Proposals have already been made to ICD-10 C&M Committee to create new codes that provide more detail on the specific device.

Status and EncounterICD-9-CM ICD-10-CM

V42.2 Heart valve replaced by transplant (tissue) Z95.3 Presence of xenogenic heart valve

Z95.4 Presence of other heart valve replacement

V43.3 Heart valve replaced by other means (artificial) Z95.2 Presence of prosthetic heart valve

V45.81 Aortocoronary bypass status Z95.1 Presence of aortocoronary bypass graft

V53.39 Fitting and adjustment of other cardiac device Z45.09 Encounter for adjustment and management of other cardiac device

Code Z95.2 is used for the presence of a mechanical heart valve. It is also the default code for the presence of any non-native valve.

Expected end-of-life for a heart valve graft is not coded as a complication. Use Z45.09 instead.3

Code Z95.3 is used for the presence of animal tissue valves, including bioprosthetics, eg. CoreValve.

Code Z95.4 is used for the presence of a homograft valve.

17

TAVR: Valve-in-ValveIn mid-2015, transcatheter aortic valve replacement received a new indication for treatment of “failure” of a previously placed bioprosthetic valve. For coding purposes, the key factor is whether the

“failure” is a complication or an expected occurrence.

Scenario ICD-10-CM

Malposition or displacement of previously placed valve T82.222A Displacement of biological heart valve graft, initial encounter

Premature stenosis of the previously placed valve T82.857A Stenosis of cardiac prosthetic devices, implants and grafts,

initial encounter

Premature regurgitation of the previously placed valve T82.223A Leakage of biological heart valve graft, initial encounter

Expected degeneration of previously placed valve (end-of-life) Z45.09 Encounter for adjustment and management of other cardiac

device

Seventh digit “A” is correct for the complication codes because active treatment is provided for the valve failure.4

constructed, character by character.

ICD-10-PCS contains no instructional notes.

Standardized terms and definitions are used throughout.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

This procedure is usually abbreviated TAVR or TAVI.

Procedural Components Access is usually through the femoral artery, though it may also be

through other access such as the subclavian artery or transaorticapproach for the Medtronic CoreValve device

The catheter is advanced through the aorta and over the native valve. Valvuloplasty may be performed to crush the native valve. The delivery catheter is placed over the remains of the native valve

and expanded to deploy the new valve.

TAVR: Valve-in-Valve Procedure

8. ICD-10-PCS Reference Manual, FY 2015, p.69

In a valve-in-valve procedure, a new transcatheter valve is placed directly within the failed previous valve device. Root Operation

Valve-in-valve is a redo of the prior valve replacement procedure. The previous valve is rendered non-functional and is replaced with an entirely new valve.

R - Replacement

A complete re-do of a procedure is coded to the root operation performed. By definition, root operation R-Replacement continues to be used when a device that replaces a body part is itself replaced. 8

Aortic Root Replacement

The aortic root may be replaced due to, for example, a congenital anomaly or an aortic root aneurysm.

There are three different procedural scenarios.

Procedure Scenario 1

Freestyle is used to replace the aortic valve with no other distinct procedural components.

Code as a surgical valve replacement.

Procedure Scenario 2

Freestyle is used to replace the aortic valve as well as a portion of the aortic root.

Code as a surgical valve replacement.

The coronary artery “buttons” must be popped off and later re-implanted.

A coding proposal addressing re-implantation of coronary buttons was presented at the March 2015 C&M meeting, so further guidance and possible code table changes may be forthcoming.

At this time, precedent indicates that re-implanting the coronary buttons should not be coded separately.9

Aortic Root Replacement

10. See Coding Clinic 4th Q 2013

Procedure Scenario 3

Code a surgical valve replacement.

The adjacent segment of the ascending thoracic aorta is excised and replaced by a separate graft, which is anastomosed to the Freestyle.

Freestyle is used to replace the aortic valve as well as a significant portion of the aortic root.

The coronary artery buttons are popped off and later re-implanted.

At this time, do not code re-implanting the coronary artery buttons.

Assign a separate code for the ascending aorta graft.10

Valved Conduit ImplantationA valved conduit is exactly that: a tube with a valve inside. Device

8 – Zooplastic Tissue: Contegra

Humanitarian Use Device:Authorized by Federal law for use in patients under 18 years of age for correction or reconstruction of the Right Ventricular Outflow Tract (RVOT) in the following congenital heart malformations: Pulmonary Stenosis, Tetralogy of Fallot, Truncus Arteriosus, Transposition with Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD), Pulmonary Atresia. In addition, the Contegra Pulmonary Valved Conduit is indicated for the replacement of previously implanted but dysfunctional pulmonary homografts or valved conduits. The effectiveness of this device for these uses has not been demonstrated.

The Contegra Pulmonary Valved Conduit is an RV-PA conduit.

There are two different procedural scenarios:Procedural Components

completely replace a previously placed RV-PA conduit

reconstruct the right ventricular outflow tract in congenital heart malformations

Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve Rplcmnt

This procedure is usually abbreviated TPVI.

Patients who undergo transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement with the Medtronic device have previously had a valved RV-PA conduit placed.

The previously placed RV-PA conduit has either developed complications or reached its expected end-of-life and now needs to be replaced.

39

Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve RplcmntProcedural Components

The catheter is advanced through the vena cava into the right atrium, through the tricuspid valve, and into the right ventricle.

Valvuloplasty is performed to crush the previously placed valve and prepare the site.

The delivery catheter is placed over the remains of the previously placed valve and expanded to deploy the new valve inside the conduit.

From the right ventricle, the catheter is advanced into the previously placed valved conduit.

Access is usually through the femoral vein.

CABGCoding Guidelines For Bypass for CABG, the fourth character shows the number of

coronary artery sites being bypassed and the qualifier shows the vessel bypassed from, ie. the vessel now supplying the blood.16

The Device character refers to use of a free graft between the vessels:17

Z – no device Use of hypothermia, cardioplegia, intraoperative pacing, and chest

tube insertion are all integral and not coded separately.17

Use of cardiopulmonary bypass is coded separately.17

Harvest of an autologous free graft is also coded separately.17

Coding Guidelines Use of CPB is coded separately with the primary procedure, eg. valve

replacement, CABG. Insertion of the cannulae is not coded separately.

ICD-10 DRG ConversionThe conversion of the DRG Grouper is about coding, not about grouping.

The same DRG will be assigned regardless of whether the case is coded in ICD-9 or ICD-10.

CMS has repeatedly stated its goal in the DRG conversion:

The conversion process has involved only replacing the ICD-9-CM codes with the equivalent ICD-10 codes.

DRG titles and underlying DRG logic has not changed, but some minor DRG variations are unavoidable. In a study of 10 million FY 2013 MedPAR records, CMS found a

DRG shift of 1.07%, with reimbursement change of -0.04%18

If the same DRG is not assigned, recheck the codes
