About 0FJG4ZZ

0FJG4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the pancreas using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Laparoscopy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (54.21).

For a different body part, codes include 0FJ04ZZ (liver), 0FJ44ZZ (gallbladder), 0FJB4ZZ (hepatobiliary duct) and 0FJD4ZZ (pancreatic duct).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FJG0ZZ (open), 0FJG3ZZ (percutaneous), 0FJG8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0FJGXZZ (external).

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 Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and 5 more.

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