About 0H5T0Z3

0H5T0Z3 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the right breast using an open approach (qualifier: laser interstitial thermal therapy). In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.

For a different body part, codes include 0H5U0Z3 (left breast) and 0H5V0Z3 (bilateral breast).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0H5T3Z3 (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 584 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 585 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R.
