About 0BC54ZZ

0BC54ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the right middle lobe bronchus using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of bronchus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (33.0).

For a different body part, codes include 0BC14ZZ (trachea), 0BC24ZZ (carina), 0BC34ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BC44ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BC64ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus), 0BC74ZZ (left main bronchus) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BC50ZZ (open), 0BC53ZZ (percutaneous), 0BC57ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0BC58ZZ (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) and DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Major Chest Procedures”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
