About 0DP5X2Z

0DP5X2Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the esophagus using an external approach with monitoring device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other device from digestive system, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.59).

For a different body part, codes include 0DP0X2Z (upper intestinal tract), 0DP6X2Z (stomach) and 0DPDX2Z (lower intestinal tract).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0DP502Z (open), 0DP532Z (percutaneous) and 0DP542Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0DP5X1Z (radioactive element), 0DP5X3Z (infusion device), 0DP5XDZ (intraluminal device) and 0DP5XUZ (feeding 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.
