About 0D548ZZ

0D548ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the esophagogastric junction using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.

In plain terms, this corresponds to endoscopic excision or destruction of lesion or tissue of esophagus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (42.33).

For a different body part, codes include 0D518ZZ (esophagus, upper), 0D528ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0D538ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0D558ZZ (esophagus), 0D568ZZ (stomach), 0D578ZZ (stomach, pylorus) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0D540ZZ (open), 0D543ZZ (percutaneous), 0D544ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0D547ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).

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.
