About 0CCC0ZZ

0CCC0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the left parotid duct using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of salivary gland or duct, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (26.0).

For a different body part, codes include 0CC00ZZ (upper lip), 0CC10ZZ (lower lip), 0CC20ZZ (hard palate), 0CC30ZZ (soft palate), 0CC40ZZ (buccal mucosa), 0CC50ZZ (upper gingiva) and 18 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CCC3ZZ (percutaneous).

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.
