ICD-10-PCS Code for Mitral Valve: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 02VG includes procedures performed to partially close an orifice or the lumen of the mitral valve in the heart and great vessels. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a clinician performs a restriction procedure on the mitral valve to reduce orifice size and alter blood flow. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 02VG group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and determines appropriate case mix and payment.

Mitral Valve Restriction Procedure Overview
Procedures in this group involve partially closing an orifice or reducing the lumen diameter of the mitral valve within the heart and great vessels. These operations target the mitral valve to restrict flow, typically to treat regurgitation or other valvular dysfunction. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the specific restriction procedure performed and supports appropriate case mix assignment.
