About 0FL70ZZ

0FL70ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the hepatic duct, common using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on biliary tract, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (51.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0FL50ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FL60ZZ (left hepatic duct), 0FL80ZZ (cystic duct), 0FL90ZZ (common bile duct), 0FLC0ZZ (ampulla of vater), 0FLD0ZZ (pancreatic duct) and 1 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FL73ZZ (percutaneous), 0FL74ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0FL77ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0FL78ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0FL70CZ (extraluminal device) and 0FL70DZ (intraluminal device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 408 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. with MCC), DRG 409 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. with CC), DRG 410 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. 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 “Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E.”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures”, “Myeloproliferative Disorders or Poorly Differentiated Neoplasms with Major O.R. Procedures” and 2 more.
