ICD-10-PCS Code For Hepatic Artery: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group B402 includes procedures performed to capture planar radiographic images of arterial structures in the hepatic artery. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when planar radiography of the hepatic artery is performed to evaluate vascular anatomy or pathology. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS B402 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.
