About 0LBH3ZX

0LBH3ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the perineum tendon using a percutaneous 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 other diagnostic procedures on muscle, tendon, fascia, and bursa, including that of hand, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.29).

For a different body part, codes include 0LB03ZX (head and neck tendon), 0LB13ZX (right shoulder tendon), 0LB23ZX (left shoulder tendon), 0LB33ZX (right upper arm tendon), 0LB43ZX (left upper arm tendon), 0LB53ZX (right lower arm and wrist tendon) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LBH0ZX (open) and 0LBH4ZX (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 500 (Soft Tissue Procedures with MCC), DRG 501 (Soft Tissue Procedures with CC) and DRG 502 (Soft Tissue Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Soft Tissue Procedures”.

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