About 0FT70ZZ
0FT70ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the hepatic duct, common using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, resection means cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to excision of other bile duct, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (51.69).
For a different body part, codes include 0FT00ZZ (liver), 0FT10ZZ (liver, right lobe), 0FT20ZZ (liver, left lobe), 0FT40ZZ (gallbladder), 0FT50ZZ (right hepatic duct), 0FT60ZZ (left hepatic duct) and 6 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0FT74ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0FT77ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0FT78ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
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 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 categories “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures” and “Biliary Tract Procedures Except Only Cholecystectomy with or without C.D.E.”.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
