About 0BWL43Z
0BWL43Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left lung using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with infusion 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 lung, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (33.1).
For a different body part, codes include 0BW043Z (tracheobronchial tree) and 0BWK43Z (right lung).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0BWL03Z (open), 0BWL33Z (percutaneous), 0BWL73Z (via natural or artificial opening), 0BWL83Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0BWLX3Z (external).
With a different device, use 0BWL40Z (drainage device), 0BWL42Z (monitoring device) and 0BWL4YZ (other device).
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” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
