About 0B5F4Z3
0B5F4Z3 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the right lower lung lobe using a percutaneous endoscopic approach (qualifier: laser interstitial thermal therapy). 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.
For a different body part, codes include 0B5C4Z3 (right upper lung lobe), 0B5D4Z3 (right middle lung lobe), 0B5G4Z3 (left upper lung lobe), 0B5H4Z3 (lung lingula), 0B5J4Z3 (left lower lung lobe), 0B5K4Z3 (right lung) and 2 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0B5F0Z3 (open) and 0B5F3Z3 (percutaneous).
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.
