About 0GTJ0ZZ
0GTJ0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the thyroid gland isthmus 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 other partial thyroidectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (06.39).
For a different body part, codes include 0GT00ZZ (pituitary gland), 0GT10ZZ (pineal body), 0GT20ZZ (left adrenal gland), 0GT30ZZ (right adrenal gland), 0GT40ZZ (bilateral adrenal glands), 0GT60ZZ (left carotid body) and 16 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0GTJ4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for 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 category “Thyroid, Parathyroid and Thyroglossal Procedures”.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
