About 0FH44YZ
0FH44YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the gallbladder using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of 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 0FH04YZ (liver), 0FHB4YZ (hepatobiliary duct), 0FHD4YZ (pancreatic duct) and 0FHG4YZ (pancreas).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FH40YZ (open) and 0FH43YZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0FH441Z (radioactive element), 0FH442Z (monitoring device) and 0FH443Z (infusion device).
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.
