About 0TPBXMZ
0TPBXMZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the bladder using an external approach with stimulator lead. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of electronic bladder stimulator, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (57.98).
For a different body part, codes include 0TP9XMZ (ureter).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TPB0MZ (open), 0TPB3MZ (percutaneous), 0TPB4MZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TPB7MZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0TPB8MZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0TPBX0Z (drainage device), 0TPBX2Z (monitoring device), 0TPBX3Z (infusion device), 0TPBXDZ (intraluminal device) and 0TPBXLZ (artificial sphincter).
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) and DRG 664 (Minor Bladder Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Minor Bladder Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
