About 0GJ54ZZ
0GJ54ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the adrenal gland using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to unilateral exploration of adrenal field, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (07.01).
For a different body part, codes include 0GJ04ZZ (pituitary gland), 0GJ14ZZ (pineal body), 0GJK4ZZ (thyroid gland), 0GJR4ZZ (parathyroid gland) and 0GJS4ZZ (endocrine gland).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0GJ50ZZ (open) and 0GJ53ZZ (percutaneous).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 614 (Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 615 (Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
