About 0D9230Z
0D9230Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the esophagus, middle using a percutaneous approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0D9130Z (esophagus, upper), 0D9330Z (esophagus, lower), 0D9430Z (esophagogastric junction), 0D9530Z (esophagus), 0D9630Z (stomach), 0D9730Z (stomach, pylorus) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0D9200Z (open), 0D9240Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0D9270Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0D9280Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0D923ZZ (no 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.
