About 0BCD8ZZ
0BCD8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the right middle lung lobe using a via natural or artificial opening 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 lung, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (33.1).
For a different body part, codes include 0BC18ZZ (trachea), 0BC28ZZ (carina), 0BC38ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BC48ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BC58ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BC68ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 12 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BCD0ZZ (open), 0BCD3ZZ (percutaneous), 0BCD4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0BCD7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).
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 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
