About 0B5D0ZZ
0B5D0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the right middle lung lobe using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.
In plain terms, this corresponds to open ablation of lung lesion or tissue and other local excision or destruction of lesion or tissue of lung, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (32.23 and 32.29).
For a different body part, codes include 0B510ZZ (trachea), 0B520ZZ (carina), 0B530ZZ (right main bronchus), 0B540ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0B550ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0B560ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0B5D3ZZ (percutaneous), 0B5D4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0B5D7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0B5D8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 163 (Major Chest Procedures with MCC), DRG 164 (Major Chest Procedures with CC), DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 820 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 821 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 822 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and “Myeloproliferative Disorders or Poorly Differentiated Neoplasms with Major O.R. Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
