About 0FPDX0Z

0FPDX0Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the pancreatic duct using an external 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 removal of pancreatic tube or drain, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.56).

For a different body part, codes include 0FP0X0Z (liver), 0FP4X0Z (gallbladder), 0FPBX0Z (hepatobiliary duct) and 0FPGX0Z (pancreas).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FPD00Z (open), 0FPD30Z (percutaneous), 0FPD40Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0FPD70Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0FPD80Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0FPDX1Z (radioactive element), 0FPDX2Z (monitoring device), 0FPDX3Z (infusion device) and 0FPDXDZ (intraluminal device).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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