How J02 is structured
The Implantable Neurostimulators branch runs 3 levels deep. 8 entries below are branch headings that group other codes rather than naming a device, so a classification has to resolve all the way down to one of the 35 codes marked terminal.
5 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 6 are “- Accessories” entries, 31% of the branch. An “- Other” code is the residual slot for devices its siblings do not name, so it is worth ruling out every specific sibling before settling on one.
The largest sub-branch is J0202 (Spinal Implantable Neurostimulators), holding 6 of the 35 terminal codes.
Frequently asked questions
- Which J02 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
- 35 of the 43 codes listed under J02 (Implantable Neurostimulators) are terminal and can be selected. The other 8 are branch headings that cannot.
- How deep is the J02 hierarchy?
- The J02 branch runs 3 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is J0202 (Spinal Implantable Neurostimulators), which holds 6 of the 35 terminal codes.
- How many J02 codes are catch-all entries?
- 5 terminal codes under J02 are "- Other" entries and 6 are "- Accessories" entries, 31% of the branch. The remaining 24 name a specific device type.
