Separate body part values are used to specify the number of sites treated when the same procedure is performed on multiple sites in the coronary arteries. • Examples: Angioplasty of two distinct sites in the left anterior descending coronary artery with placement of two stents is coded as Dilation of Coronary Arteries, Two Sites, with Intraluminal Device. http://www.birminghamheart.com/index.php?Page=s9 | 8 PCI: BODY PART • Ordinarily, specification of site is very good… • In other words, this is very much a coding issue, much less a documentation issue | 9 PCI: APPROACH 0 2 7 1 3 4 Z Ex.: PTCA with DES, 2 sites, perQ • A percutaneous approach (character value 3) involves entry, by puncture or minor incision, of instrumentation through the skin or mucous membrane and any other body layers necessary to reach the site of the procedure. The access location for this approach is the skin or mucous membrane with instrumentation such as needles or catheters being used to reach the operative site. • Not much debate here, by definition, PCIs are percutaneous | 10 PCI: DEVICES Optimized device value assignment for PCIs begins with the coder quickly identifying if a stent is a DES or BMS Appendix D: Device Key and Aggregation Table is useful, but not completely adequate A comprehensive stent-to-device value relationship key is a better idea, but needs to be maintained http://www.slideshare.net/quizzito/bioabsorbabledrugeluting-cardiac-stent-analysis Function DES DES DES Name TAXUS™ Liberté™ ION™ Promus PREMIER™ Manufacturer Boston Scientific Boston Scientific Boston Scientific DES DES DES DES DES DES DES DES DES DES DES PROMUS Element™ Plus Coroflex® ISAR Cypher® Nevo™ Endeavour Resolute Integrity Resolute Onyx™ Firehawk® Xience V Orsiro Zilver Boston Scientific B Braun Cordis Cordis Medtronic Medtronic Medtronic MicroPort Abbott Vascular Biotronik Cook Medical Comment Peripheral DES 10 PCI: DEVICES 0 2 7 1 3 4 Z Ex.: PTCA one site, PerQ…Device TBD | 12 PCI: QUALIFIERS 0 2 7 1 3 4 Z Ex.: PTCA with DES, 2 sites, perQ • Codes describing PTAs on bifurcations have been around for a while, this concept goes back to ICD-9 and was designed to capture data related to technically challenging bifurcated lesions • True bifurcations, where both segments of the bifurcation — meaning the main vessel and the side branch vessel — are involved are between 10 to 30 percent… http://www.cathlabdigest.com/articles/Current-Treatment-Bifurcation-Lesions-and-a-Dedicated-Stent | 13 PCI: QUALIFIERS There are actually dedicated bifurcated stents (DBS), understanding the device names can help coders ID procedures on bifurcated lesions involving stent insertion ….a comprehensive stent-to-qualifier value relationship key is a good idea, but needs to be maintained Function DBS DBS DBS DBS Name SideKick™ Frontier™ Invatec Twin-Rail™ Nile CroCo™ Manufacturer Y-Med Guidant/Abbott Invatec Minvasys DBS DBS DBS DBS DBS DBS DBS SLK View™ Stentys™ Petal™ Antares™ Sideguard™ Tryton™ Axxess™ Advanced Stent Technology Stentys Boston Scientific Tireme Medical Inc Capella Tryton Medical Devax Comment DES DES DES http://www.cathlabdigest.com/articles/Current-TreatmentBifurcation-Lesions-and-a-Dedicated-Stent 13 Along for the Ride: Major Players Procedures CommonlyPerformed with PCI | 15 CONTRAST • Back to cardiac catheterization and coronary angiography performed in the same setting as PCI… • ICD-10 requires coders to identify the type of contrast used for contrastbased procedures, current options include: 0, High Osmolar 1, Low Osmolar Y, Other Contrast Z, None • Contrast related challenges can be overcome by: Keeping in mind standard of care for contrast media utilization Helping coders understand where contrast details may be found Providing a dynamic key to help coders quickly relate contrast names to PCS character values | 16 CONTRAST…AND COMPARE Compound Name Osmolality Ionic Diatrizoate (Hypaque, Cystograffin, Gastrograffin) High Ionic Ionic Iothalamate (Conray, Cysto-Conray) Ioxithalamate (Telebrix) High High Ionic Metrizoate (Isopaque) High Non-ionic Iobitrol (Xenetix) Low Non-ionic Iohexol (Omnipaque) Low Non-ionic Iomeprol Low Non-ionic Non-ionic Non-ionic Non-ionic Iopamidol (Isovue) Low Iopentol (Imagopague, Ivepague) Iopromide (Ultravist) Ioversol (Optiray) Low Low Low Non-ionic Ioxilan (Oxilan) Low Ionic Ioxaglate (Hexabrix) Low Non-ionic Iodixanol (Visipaque) Iso-osmolar Non-ionic Iotrolan (Isovist) Iso-osmolar | 17 IMAGING MODALITY • ICD-10 requires coders to identify the imaging modality used during angiography, ventriculography: 0, Plain radiography 1, Fluoroscopy • Imaging-related challenges can be overcome by: Keeping in mind standard of care for intra-cath/PCI imaging During angiography/angiocardiography, the physician visualizes the coronary arteries and chambers, most commonly the LV, real time…this is accomplished using FLUOROSCOPY! Along for the Ride: Minor Players Procedures CommonlyPerformed with PCI | 19 OTHER RELATED PROCEDURES There are certain other procedures that may be performed in conjunction with PCI, some more common than others, tips for mastery are included below: 3 E 0 3 3 P Z Ex.: Integrillin infusion via peripheral vein Glycoprotein iib/iiia inhibitors Brand Name Generic Name Aggrastat® Tirofiban Integrillin® Eptifibatide ReoPro® Abciximab Understanding drug names (brand and generic) is critical! Understanding where to find them is essential! Understanding route of administration is key! GP iib/iiia inhibitors are administered intravenously Just by knowing the above, the coder can immediately reduce their options from five to two… | 20 OTHER RELATED PROCEDURES 3 E 0 3 3 1 7 Thrombolytic agents Understanding drug names is critical! You coders should –ase these! Generic Name Understanding where to find them is essential! Understanding indications is useful! Urokinase Understanding route of administration is key!
