About 0T13478
0T13478 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the right kidney pelvis using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous tissue substitute (qualifier: colon). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to anastomosis of kidney, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (55.86).
For a different body part, codes include 0T14478 (left kidney pelvis), 0T16478 (right ureter), 0T17478 (left ureter) and 0T18478 (bilateral ureters).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0T13078 (open).
With a different device, use 0T134J8 (synthetic substitute), 0T134K8 (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0T134Z8 (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 656 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm with MCC), DRG 657 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm with CC), DRG 658 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm without CC/MCC), DRG 659 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm with MCC), DRG 660 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm with CC) and DRG 661 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “” and “Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Non-Neoplasm”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
