About GZ63ZZZ

GZ63ZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a counseling procedure on the other counseling using a none approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, counseling means the application of psychological methods to treat an individual with normal developmental issues and psychological problems in order to increase function, improve well-being, alleviate distress, maladjustment or resolve crises.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other counseling, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (94.49).

For a different body part, codes include GZ60ZZZ (educational) and GZ61ZZZ (vocational).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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