About 0CPA30Z

0CPA30Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the salivary gland using a percutaneous approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device 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 0CPS30Z (larynx) and 0CPY30Z (mouth and throat).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CPA00Z (open).

With a different device, use 0CPA3CZ (extraluminal device) and 0CPA3YZ (other device).

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.
