02LH0ZZ ICD-10-PCS Code: Occlusion of Pulmonary Valve, Open Approach
Axis Breakdown
Every ICD-10-PCS code is exactly seven characters, one per axis. Each character's meaning is defined by its position in the code.
| Position | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Section0 | Medical and Surgical |
| 2 | Body System2 | Heart and Great Vessels |
| 3 | Root OperationL | Occlusion Completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part |
| 4 | Body PartH | Pulmonary Valve |
| 5 | Approach0 | Open |
| 6 | DeviceZ | No Device |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)
Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 6 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 05 — Other Major Cardiovascular Procedures: DRG 270, DRG 271, DRG 272
- MDC 21 — Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries: DRG 907, DRG 908, DRG 909
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
