About 0W1B3JB

0W1B3JB is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the left pleural cavity using a percutaneous approach with synthetic substitute (qualifier: left pleural cavity). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.

For a different body part, codes include 0W193JB (right pleural cavity), 0W1G3JB (peritoneal cavity) and 0W1J3JB (pelvic cavity).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0W1B0JB (open) and 0W1B4JB (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 166 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 167 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 168 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

It was added in FY2019, effective October 1, 2018.
