About 0UB78ZZ

0UB78ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the bilateral fallopian tubes using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to bilateral partial salpingectomy, not otherwise specified, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (66.63).

For a different body part, codes include 0UB08ZZ (right ovary), 0UB18ZZ (left ovary), 0UB28ZZ (bilateral ovaries), 0UB48ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UB58ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UB68ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UB70ZZ (open), 0UB73ZZ (percutaneous), 0UB74ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0UB77ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 744 (D&C, Conization, Laparoscopy and Tubal Interruption with CC/MCC), DRG 745 (D&C, Conization, Laparoscopy and Tubal Interruption without CC/MCC), DRG 783 (Cesarean Section with Sterilization with MCC), DRG 784 (Cesarean Section with Sterilization with CC), DRG 785 (Cesarean Section with Sterilization without CC/MCC) and DRG 796 (Vaginal Delivery with Sterilization and/or D&C with MCC), under the surgical categories “D&C, Conization, Laparoscopy and Tubal Interruption”, “Cesarean Section with Sterilization” and “Vaginal Delivery with Sterilization and/or D&C”.

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