About 0G5B3ZZ
0G5B3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the coccygeal glomus using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on carotid body, carotid sinus and other vascular bodies, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.89).
For a different body part, codes include 0G503ZZ (pituitary gland), 0G513ZZ (pineal body), 0G523ZZ (left adrenal gland), 0G533ZZ (right adrenal gland), 0G543ZZ (bilateral adrenal glands), 0G563ZZ (left carotid body) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0G5B0ZZ (open) and 0G5B4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 252 (Other Vascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 253 (Other Vascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Vascular Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
