About 0BQT0ZZ

0BQT0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the diaphragm using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of diaphragm, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (34.84).

For a different body part, codes include 0BQ10ZZ (trachea), 0BQ20ZZ (carina), 0BQ30ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BQ40ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BQ50ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BQ60ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BQT3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0BQT4ZZ (percutaneous 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 326 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures with MCC), DRG 327 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures with CC) and DRG 328 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures”, “Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
