About 0FHG41Z
0FHG41Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the pancreas using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with radioactive element. 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.
For a different body part, codes include 0FH041Z (liver), 0FH441Z (gallbladder), 0FHB41Z (hepatobiliary duct) and 0FHD41Z (pancreatic duct).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FHG01Z (open) and 0FHG31Z (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0FHG42Z (monitoring device), 0FHG43Z (infusion device) and 0FHG4YZ (other device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 405 (Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures with MCC), DRG 406 (Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures with CC) and DRG 407 (Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Pancreas, Liver and Shunt Procedures”.
It was added in FY2021, effective October 1, 2020.
