About 0FB63ZX
0FB63ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the left hepatic duct using a percutaneous approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to percutaneous biopsy of gallbladder or bile ducts, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (51.12).
For a different body part, codes include 0FB03ZX (liver), 0FB13ZX (liver, right lobe), 0FB23ZX (liver, left lobe), 0FB43ZX (gallbladder), 0FB53ZX (right hepatic duct), 0FB73ZX (hepatic duct, common) and 6 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FB60ZX (open), 0FB64ZX (percutaneous endoscopic), 0FB67ZX (via natural or artificial opening) and 0FB68ZX (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
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.
