About 0GW540Z
0GW540Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the adrenal gland using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
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 0GW040Z (pituitary gland), 0GW140Z (pineal body), 0GWK40Z (thyroid gland), 0GWR40Z (parathyroid gland) and 0GWS40Z (endocrine gland).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0GW500Z (open), 0GW530Z (percutaneous) and 0GW5X0Z (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.
