About 0TJB0ZZ
0TJB0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the bladder using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other cystotomy and other incision of perivesical tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (57.19 and 59.19).
For a different body part, codes include 0TJ50ZZ (kidney), 0TJ90ZZ (ureter) and 0TJD0ZZ (urethra).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TJB3ZZ (percutaneous), 0TJB4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TJB7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0TJB8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TJBXZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 662 (Minor Bladder Procedures with MCC), DRG 663 (Minor Bladder Procedures with CC), DRG 664 (Minor Bladder Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Minor Bladder Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
