About 0BR30KZ

0BR30KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the right main bronchus using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair and plastic operations on bronchus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (33.48).

For a different body part, codes include 0BR10KZ (trachea), 0BR20KZ (carina), 0BR40KZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BR50KZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BR60KZ (right lower lobe bronchus), 0BR70KZ (left main bronchus) and 4 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BR34KZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0BR307Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0BR30JZ (synthetic substitute).

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”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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