About 0D9970Z

0D9970Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the duodenum using a via natural or artificial opening 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 insertion of (naso-)intestinal tube, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (96.08).

For a different body part, codes include 0D9170Z (esophagus, upper), 0D9270Z (esophagus, middle), 0D9370Z (esophagus, lower), 0D9470Z (esophagogastric junction), 0D9570Z (esophagus), 0D9670Z (stomach) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0D9900Z (open), 0D9930Z (percutaneous), 0D9940Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0D9980Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0D997ZZ (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.
