About 00P630Z

00P630Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the cerebral ventricle using a percutaneous approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of brain, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (01.39).

For a different body part, codes include 00P030Z (brain), 00PE30Z (cranial nerve), 00PU30Z (spinal canal) and 00PV30Z (spinal cord).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 00P600Z (open), 00P640Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 00P6X0Z (external).

With a different device, use 00P632Z (monitoring device), 00P633Z (infusion device), 00P63JZ (synthetic substitute), 00P63MZ (neurostimulator lead) and 00P63YZ (other device).

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.
