0DH57YZInsertion of Other Device into Esophagus, Via Natural or Artificial Opening

0DH57YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the esophagus using a via natural or artificial opening approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to digestive tract instillation, except gastric gavage, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (96.43).

For a different body part, codes include 0DH07YZ (upper intestinal tract), 0DH67YZ (stomach) and 0DHD7YZ (lower intestinal tract).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DH50YZ (open), 0DH53YZ (percutaneous), 0DH54YZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0DH58YZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0DH571Z (radioactive element), 0DH572Z (monitoring device), 0DH573Z (infusion device), 0DH57BZ (intraluminal device, airway), 0DH57DZ (intraluminal device) and 0DH57UZ (feeding device).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
