05H042Z ICD-10-PCS Code: Insertion of Monitoring Device into Azygos Vein, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach
Insert of Monitor Dev into Azygos Vein, Perc Endo 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 System5 | Upper Veins |
| 3 | Root OperationH | Insertion Putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part |
| 4 | Body Part0 | Azygos Vein |
| 5 | Approach4 | Percutaneous Endoscopic |
| 6 | Device2 | Monitoring 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 01 — Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures: DRG 040, DRG 041, DRG 042
- 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.
