About 0BBK7ZZ
0BBK7ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right lung using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other local excision or destruction of lesion or tissue of lung, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (32.29).
For a different body part, codes include 0BB17ZZ (trachea), 0BB27ZZ (carina), 0BB37ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BB47ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BB57ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BB67ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 12 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BBK0ZZ (open), 0BBK3ZZ (percutaneous), 0BBK4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0BBK8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening 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 820 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 821 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 822 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and “Myeloproliferative Disorders or Poorly Differentiated Neoplasms with Major O.R. Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
