About 0TP5X0Z

0TP5X0Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the kidney using an external approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of pyelostomy and nephrostomy tube, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.61).

For a different body part, codes include 0TP9X0Z (ureter), 0TPBX0Z (bladder) and 0TPDX0Z (urethra).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TP500Z (open), 0TP530Z (percutaneous), 0TP540Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TP570Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0TP580Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0TP5X2Z (monitoring device), 0TP5X3Z (infusion device) and 0TP5XDZ (intraluminal device).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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