About 0T5C7ZZ

0T5C7ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the bladder neck using a via natural or artificial opening approach. 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.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other transurethral excision or destruction of lesion or tissue of bladder, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (57.49).

For a different body part, codes include 0T507ZZ (right kidney), 0T517ZZ (left kidney), 0T537ZZ (right kidney pelvis), 0T547ZZ (left kidney pelvis), 0T567ZZ (right ureter), 0T577ZZ (left ureter) and 2 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0T5C0ZZ (open), 0T5C3ZZ (percutaneous), 0T5C4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0T5C8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 668 (Transurethral Procedures with MCC), DRG 669 (Transurethral Procedures with CC), DRG 670 (Transurethral Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 715 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy with CC/MCC), DRG 716 (Male Reproductive System and Other O.R. Procedures for Malignancy without CC/MCC) and DRG 717 (Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Transurethral Procedures”, “” and “Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”.

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