About 0FT40ZZ

0FT40ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the gallbladder using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, resection means cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to cholecystectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (51.22).

For a different body part, codes include 0FT00ZZ (liver), 0FT10ZZ (liver, right lobe), 0FT20ZZ (liver, left lobe), 0FT50ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FT60ZZ (left hepatic duct), 0FT70ZZ (hepatic duct, common) and 6 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FT44ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 356 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 357 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 358 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 411 (Cholecystectomy with C.D.E. with MCC), DRG 412 (Cholecystectomy with C.D.E. with CC) and DRG 413 (Cholecystectomy with C.D.E. without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures”, “Cholecystectomy except by laparoscope”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and 3 more.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
