About 0BPT40Z
0BPT40Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the diaphragm using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on diaphragm, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (34.89).
For a different body part, codes include 0BP040Z (tracheobronchial tree), 0BP140Z (trachea), 0BPK40Z (right lung), 0BPL40Z (left lung) and 0BPQ40Z (pleura).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BPT00Z (open), 0BPT30Z (percutaneous), 0BPT70Z (via natural or artificial opening), 0BPT80Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0BPTX0Z (external).
With a different device, use 0BPT42Z (monitoring device), 0BPT47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0BPT4JZ (synthetic substitute), 0BPT4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute), 0BPT4MZ (diaphragmatic pacemaker lead) and 0BPT4YZ (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”.
