About 0BV20ZZ
0BV20ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the carina using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair and plastic operations on trachea, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (31.79).
For a different body part, codes include 0BV10ZZ (trachea), 0BV30ZZ (right main bronchus), 0BV40ZZ (right upper lobe bronchus), 0BV50ZZ (right middle lobe bronchus), 0BV60ZZ (right lower lobe bronchus), 0BV70ZZ (left main bronchus) and 3 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BV23ZZ (percutaneous), 0BV24ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BV27ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0BV28ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0BV20CZ (extraluminal device) and 0BV20DZ (intraluminal device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R.
