About 07928ZX
07928ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the lymphatic, left neck using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of lymphatic structure, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (40.11).
For a different body part, codes include 07908ZX (lymphatic, head), 07918ZX (lymphatic, right neck), 07938ZX (lymphatic, right upper extremity), 07948ZX (lymphatic, left upper extremity), 07958ZX (lymphatic, right axillary), 07968ZX (lymphatic, left axillary) and 12 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 07920ZX (open), 07923ZX (percutaneous) and 07924ZX (percutaneous endoscopic).
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 FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
