About 0G993ZZ
0G993ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the para-aortic body using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0G903ZZ (pituitary gland), 0G913ZZ (pineal body), 0G923ZZ (left adrenal gland), 0G933ZZ (right adrenal gland), 0G943ZZ (bilateral adrenal glands), 0G963ZZ (left carotid body) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0G990ZZ (open) and 0G994ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0G9930Z (drainage 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.
