About 06L27ZZ

06L27ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the gastric vein using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

For a different body part, codes include 06L37ZZ (esophageal vein) and 06LY7ZZ (lower vein).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 06L20ZZ (open), 06L23ZZ (percutaneous), 06L24ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 06L28ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 06L27CZ (extraluminal device) and 06L27DZ (intraluminal device).

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 FY2020, effective October 1, 2019.
