About 0W3N0ZZ
0W3N0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a control procedure on the perineum, female using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, control means stopping, or attempting to stop, postprocedural or other acute bleeding.
In plain terms, this corresponds to control of hemorrhage, not otherwise specified, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (39.98).
For a different body part, codes include 0W300ZZ (head), 0W310ZZ (cranial cavity), 0W320ZZ (face), 0W330ZZ (oral cavity and throat), 0W340ZZ (upper jaw), 0W350ZZ (lower jaw) and 16 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0W3N3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0W3N4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 361 (Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 362 (Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures without MCC), DRG 749 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 750 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 820 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCC) and DRG 821 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CC), under the surgical categories “Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures”, “Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R.
