About 0DH68YZ

0DH68YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the stomach using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach with other 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 digestive tract instillation, except gastric gavage, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (96.43).

For a different body part, codes include 0DH08YZ (upper intestinal tract), 0DH58YZ (esophagus) and 0DHD8YZ (lower intestinal tract).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DH60YZ (open), 0DH63YZ (percutaneous), 0DH64YZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0DH67YZ (via natural or artificial opening).

With a different device, use 0DH681Z (radioactive element), 0DH682Z (monitoring device), 0DH683Z (infusion device), 0DH68DZ (intraluminal device) and 0DH68UZ (feeding device).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
