03120AKICD-10-PCS Code: Bypass Innominate Artery to Left Extracranial Artery with Autologous Arterial Tissue, Open Approach
Bypass Innom Art to L Extracran Art w Autol Art, Open
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 System3 | Upper Arteries |
| 3 | Root Operation1 | Bypass Altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part |
| 4 | Body Part2 | Innominate Artery |
| 5 | Approach0 | Open |
| 6 | DeviceA | Autologous Arterial Tissue |
| 7 | QualifierK | Extracranial Artery, Left |
Potential MS-DRG Relationships (FY2026)
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 4 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 05 — Complex Aortic Arch Procedures: DRG 209
- MDC 05 — Other Vascular Procedures: DRG 252, DRG 253, DRG 254
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
