About 0CWA30Z
0CWA30Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the salivary gland using a percutaneous 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 salivary gland or duct, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (26.0).
For a different body part, codes include 0CWS30Z (larynx) and 0CWY30Z (mouth and throat).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CWA00Z (open) and 0CWAX0Z (external).
With a different device, use 0CWA3CZ (extraluminal device) and 0CWA3YZ (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.
