About 079T4ZX

079T4ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the bone marrow using a percutaneous 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 bone marrow, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (41.31).

For a different body part, codes include 07904ZX (lymphatic, head), 07914ZX (lymphatic, right neck), 07924ZX (lymphatic, left neck), 07934ZX (lymphatic, right upper extremity), 07944ZX (lymphatic, left upper extremity), 07954ZX (lymphatic, right axillary) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 079T0ZX (open) and 079T3ZX (percutaneous).

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.
