About 0DL68DZ

0DL68DZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a occlusion procedure on the stomach using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach with intraluminal device. In ICD-10-PCS, occlusion means completely closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on stomach, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (44.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0DL18DZ (esophagus, upper), 0DL28DZ (esophagus, middle), 0DL38DZ (esophagus, lower), 0DL48DZ (esophagogastric junction), 0DL58DZ (esophagus), 0DL78DZ (stomach, pylorus) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DL60DZ (open), 0DL63DZ (percutaneous), 0DL64DZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0DL67DZ (via natural or artificial opening).

With a different device, use 0DL68ZZ (no 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 619 (O.R. Procedures for Obesity with MCC), DRG 620 (O.R. Procedures for Obesity with CC) and DRG 621 (O.R. Procedures for Obesity without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures”, “O.R. Procedures for Obesity”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
