About 0FBF0ZX
0FBF0ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the pancreatic duct, accessory using an open 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 open biopsy of pancreas, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (52.12).
For a different body part, codes include 0FB00ZX (liver), 0FB10ZX (liver, right lobe), 0FB20ZX (liver, left lobe), 0FB40ZX (gallbladder), 0FB50ZX (right hepatic duct), 0FB60ZX (left hepatic duct) and 6 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FBF3ZX (percutaneous), 0FBF4ZX (percutaneous endoscopic), 0FBF7ZX (via natural or artificial opening) and 0FBF8ZX (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.
