About 06BY0ZC

06BY0ZC is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the lower vein using an open approach (qualifier: hemorrhoidal plexus). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to excision of hemorrhoids, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (49.46).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06BY3ZC (percutaneous) and 06BY4ZC (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 347 (Anal and Stomal Procedures with MCC), DRG 348 (Anal and Stomal Procedures with CC) and DRG 349 (Anal and Stomal Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Anal and Stomal Procedures”.

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