About 0BPL43Z
0BPL43Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the left lung using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device 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 0BP043Z (tracheobronchial tree) and 0BPK43Z (right lung).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BPL03Z (open), 0BPL33Z (percutaneous), 0BPL73Z (via natural or artificial opening), 0BPL83Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0BPLX3Z (external).
With a different device, use 0BPL40Z (drainage device), 0BPL41Z (radioactive element), 0BPL42Z (monitoring device) and 0BPL4YZ (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), 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.
