About 0NBP0ZZ
0NBP0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right orbit using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to excision of lesion of orbit, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (16.92).
For a different body part, codes include 0NB00ZZ (skull), 0NB10ZZ (frontal bone), 0NB30ZZ (right parietal bone), 0NB40ZZ (left parietal bone), 0NB50ZZ (right temporal bone), 0NB60ZZ (left temporal bone) and 16 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0NBP3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0NBP4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 113 (Orbital Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 114 (Orbital Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 907 (Other O.R.
