About 0F9F0ZX

0F9F0ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the pancreatic duct, accessory using an open approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to open biopsy of pancreas, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (52.12).

For a different body part, codes include 0F900ZX (liver), 0F910ZX (liver, right lobe), 0F920ZX (liver, left lobe), 0F940ZX (gallbladder), 0F950ZX (right hepatic duct), 0F960ZX (left hepatic duct) and 6 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0F9F3ZX (percutaneous), 0F9F4ZX (percutaneous endoscopic), 0F9F7ZX (via natural or artificial opening) and 0F9F8ZX (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 356 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 357 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 358 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 420 (Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures with MCC), DRG 421 (Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures with CC) and DRG 422 (Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures”, “Hepatobiliary Diagnostic Procedures”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures” and 4 more.

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