About 0BL43DZ

0BL43DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the right upper lobe bronchus using a percutaneous approach with intraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to ligation of bronchus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (33.92).

For a different body part, codes include 0BL13DZ (trachea), 0BL23DZ (carina), 0BL33DZ (right main bronchus), 0BL53DZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BL63DZ (right lower lobe bronchus), 0BL73DZ (left main bronchus) and 3 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BL40DZ (open), 0BL44DZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BL47DZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0BL48DZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0BL43CZ (extraluminal device) and 0BL43ZZ (no 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.
