About 0BCF0ZZ

0BCF0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the right lower lung lobe using an open 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 0BC10ZZ (trachea), 0BC20ZZ (carina), 0BC30ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BC40ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BC50ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BC60ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BCF3ZZ (percutaneous), 0BCF4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BCF7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0BCF8ZZ (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 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.
