About 0D188ZH

0D188ZH is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the small intestine using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach (qualifier: cecum). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0D180ZH (open) and 0D184ZH (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0D1887H (autologous tissue substitute), 0D188JH (synthetic substitute) and 0D188KH (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 329 (Major Small and Large Bowel Procedures with MCC), DRG 330 (Major Small and Large Bowel Procedures with CC), DRG 331 (Major Small and Large Bowel Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 619 (O.R.
