About 0FC43ZZ

0FC43ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the gallbladder using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other cholecystotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (51.04).

For a different body part, codes include 0FC03ZZ (liver), 0FC13ZZ (liver, right lobe), 0FC23ZZ (liver, left lobe), 0FC53ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FC63ZZ (left hepatic duct), 0FC73ZZ (hepatic duct, common) and 6 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FC40ZZ (open), 0FC44ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0FC48ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 408 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. with MCC), DRG 409 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. with CC) and DRG 410 (Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E. without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E.”.

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