About 0DBF8ZZ

0DBF8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right large intestine using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to endoscopic polypectomy of large intestine and other and unspecified partial excision of large intestine, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (45.42 and 45.79).

For a different body part, codes include 0DB18ZZ (esophagus, upper), 0DB28ZZ (esophagus, middle), 0DB38ZZ (esophagus, lower), 0DB48ZZ (esophagogastric junction), 0DB58ZZ (esophagus), 0DB68ZZ (stomach) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DBF0ZZ (open), 0DBF3ZZ (percutaneous), 0DBF4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0DBF7ZZ (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.
