ICD-10-PCS Code For Coronary Artery Bypass Graft: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group B202 includes procedures performed to image coronary artery bypass grafts using plain radiography in the heart. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when radiographic evaluation of a coronary artery bypass graft is performed to assess graft patency, placement, or complications. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS B202 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Plain Radiography Procedure Overview

Procedures in this group involve plain radiographic imaging of the coronary artery bypass graft using external ionizing radiation and photographic or photoconductive plates. These procedures target the heart's bypass grafts to evaluate graft integrity, placement, and potential complications. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these imaging procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the diagnostic imaging performed and supports appropriate case mix assignment.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when plain radiographic imaging is performed to evaluate a coronary artery bypass graft in an inpatient setting. Typical clinical circumstances include assessment of graft position, suspected graft failure, or evaluation for complications following bypass surgery.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A 68-year-old male several days after elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery is admitted for routine postoperative imaging to document graft position and check for immediate postoperative complications such as hematoma or malposition; plain radiography is obtained to visualize the single bypass graft as part of inpatient postoperative care. Typical codes: B2020ZZ, B2021ZZ
A 57-year-old female presents to the inpatient service with acute chest pain and new ECG changes suspicious for graft occlusion several months after bypass surgery; bedside plain radiographic imaging of the single coronary artery bypass graft is performed to assess graft integrity and look for signs suggesting graft failure or related complications. Typical codes: B2021ZZ, B202YZZ
A 74-year-old patient with chronic renal insufficiency is admitted for evaluation of progressive shortness of breath and suspected graft-related complication; because of contrast concerns, plain radiography of the single coronary artery bypass graft is performed using alternative contrast selection or other imaging technique to minimize renal risk while assessing graft placement and possible complication. Typical codes: B202YZZ, B2020ZZ
