About 0BW070Z

0BW070Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the tracheobronchial tree using a via natural or artificial opening approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of bronchus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (33.0).

For a different body part, codes include 0BW170Z (trachea), 0BWK70Z (right lung), 0BWL70Z (left lung), 0BWQ70Z (pleura) and 0BWT70Z (diaphragm).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BW000Z (open), 0BW030Z (percutaneous), 0BW040Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BW080Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0BW0X0Z (external).

With a different device, use 0BW072Z (monitoring device), 0BW073Z (infusion device), 0BW077Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0BW07CZ (extraluminal device), 0BW07DZ (intraluminal device), 0BW07JZ (synthetic substitute) and 2 more.

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”.
