About 0W1B4JW
0W1B4JW is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the left pleural cavity using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with synthetic substitute (qualifier: upper vein). 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 0W194JW (right pleural cavity), 0W1G4JW (peritoneal cavity) and 0W1J4JW (pelvic cavity).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0W1B0JW (open) and 0W1B3JW (percutaneous).
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 FY2019, effective October 1, 2018.
