About 0GBN4ZX
0GBN4ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right inferior parathyroid gland using a percutaneous endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of parathyroid gland, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (06.13).
For a different body part, codes include 0GB04ZX (pituitary gland), 0GB14ZX (pineal body), 0GB24ZX (left adrenal gland), 0GB34ZX (right adrenal gland), 0GB44ZX (bilateral adrenal glands), 0GB64ZX (left carotid body) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0GBN0ZX (open) and 0GBN3ZX (percutaneous).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 625 (Thyroid, Parathyroid and Thyroglossal Procedures with MCC), DRG 626 (Thyroid, Parathyroid and Thyroglossal Procedures with CC) and DRG 627 (Thyroid, Parathyroid and Thyroglossal Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures” and “Thyroid, Parathyroid and Thyroglossal Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
