About 0BW072Z

0BW072Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the tracheobronchial tree using a via natural or artificial opening approach with monitoring 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 0BW172Z (trachea), 0BWK72Z (right lung), 0BWL72Z (left lung), 0BWQ72Z (pleura) and 0BWT72Z (diaphragm).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BW002Z (open), 0BW032Z (percutaneous), 0BW042Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0BW082Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0BW0X2Z (external).

With a different device, use 0BW070Z (drainage device), 0BW073Z (infusion device), 0BW077Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0BW07CZ (extraluminal device), 0BW07DZ (intraluminal device), 0BW07JZ (synthetic substitute) and 2 more.

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
