About 0FC73ZZ
0FC73ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the hepatic duct, common 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 percutaneous procedures on biliary tract, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (51.98).
For a different body part, codes include 0FC03ZZ (liver), 0FC13ZZ (liver, right lobe), 0FC23ZZ (liver, left lobe), 0FC43ZZ (gallbladder), 0FC53ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FC63ZZ (left hepatic duct) and 6 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FC70ZZ (open), 0FC74ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0FC77ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0FC78ZZ (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 was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
