About 0DH542Z
0DH542Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the esophagus using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with monitoring device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of esophagus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (42.09).
For a different body part, codes include 0DH642Z (stomach), 0DH842Z (small intestine), 0DH942Z (duodenum), 0DHA42Z (jejunum) and 0DHB42Z (ileum).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DH502Z (open), 0DH532Z (percutaneous), 0DH572Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0DH582Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0DH541Z (radioactive element), 0DH543Z (infusion device), 0DH54DZ (intraluminal device), 0DH54UZ (feeding device) and 0DH54YZ (other device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 326 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures with MCC), DRG 327 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures with CC), DRG 328 (Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
