About 0TPB72Z
0TPB72Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the bladder using a via natural or artificial opening approach with monitoring 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 other device from urinary system, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.69).
For a different body part, codes include 0TP572Z (kidney), 0TP972Z (ureter) and 0TPD72Z (urethra).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TPB02Z (open), 0TPB32Z (percutaneous), 0TPB42Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TPB82Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TPBX2Z (external).
With a different device, use 0TPB70Z (drainage device), 0TPB73Z (infusion device), 0TPB77Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0TPB7CZ (extraluminal device), 0TPB7DZ (intraluminal device), 0TPB7JZ (synthetic substitute) and 4 more.
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.
