About 0GP540Z

0GP540Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the adrenal gland using a percutaneous endoscopic 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 incision of adrenal gland, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (07.41).

For a different body part, codes include 0GP040Z (pituitary gland), 0GP140Z (pineal body), 0GPK40Z (thyroid gland), 0GPR40Z (parathyroid gland) and 0GPS40Z (endocrine gland).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0GP500Z (open), 0GP530Z (percutaneous) and 0GP5X0Z (external).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 614 (Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 615 (Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Adrenal and Pituitary Procedures”.

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