About 0BH003Z

0BH003Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the tracheobronchial tree using an open approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of 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 0BHK03Z (right lung) and 0BHL03Z (left lung).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BH033Z (percutaneous), 0BH043Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BH073Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0BH083Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0BH001Z (radioactive element), 0BH002Z (monitoring device), 0BH00DZ (intraluminal device) and 0BH00YZ (other device).

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.
