About 0FP440Z

0FP440Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the gallbladder using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device 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 0FP040Z (liver), 0FPB40Z (hepatobiliary duct), 0FPD40Z (pancreatic duct) and 0FPG40Z (pancreas).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FP400Z (open), 0FP430Z (percutaneous), 0FP480Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0FP4X0Z (external).

With a different device, use 0FP442Z (monitoring device), 0FP443Z (infusion device), 0FP44DZ (intraluminal device) and 0FP44YZ (other device).

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.
