Description
Master endovascular aneurysm repair ICD-10-PCS coding! Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) coding is anything but routine—and with evolving technology, precision is key. In this advanced session, we’ll dive deep into ICD-10-PCS coding for EVAR, TEVAR, and FEVAR procedures, breaking down the anatomy, devices, and techniques that drive code assignment. You’ll learn how to distinguish a fenestration from a docking limb, code bypass procedures associated with TEVAR, and correctly identify iliac branch endografts. We’ll also explore when new technology codes apply and how to apply them with confidence. Whether you’re a seasoned inpatient coder or new to vascular procedures, this webinar will help you decode the details and strengthen your accuracy in one of the most complex areas of PCS coding.
Objectives:
- Differentiate between EVAR, TEVAR, and FEVAR procedures based on operative details and anatomy
- Distinguish between docking limbs and fenestrations when assigning ICD-10-PCS codes
- Apply PCS coding guidelines to accurately code bypass procedures associated with TEVAR
- Identify and correctly code iliac branch endografts using ICD-10-PCS
- Determine when to assign new technology codes for endovascular aneurysm repair procedures
