About 0B5T3ZZ
0B5T3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the diaphragm using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.
In plain terms, this corresponds to excision of lesion or tissue of diaphragm, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (34.81).
For a different body part, codes include 0B513ZZ (trachea), 0B523ZZ (carina), 0B533ZZ (right main bronchus), 0B543ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0B553ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0B563ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0B5T0ZZ (open) and 0B5T4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 163 (Major Chest Procedures with MCC), DRG 164 (Major Chest Procedures with CC), DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures” and “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
