About 0W9130Z

0W9130Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the cranial cavity using a percutaneous approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other cranial puncture and other craniotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (01.09 and 01.24).

For a different body part, codes include 0W9030Z (head), 0W9230Z (face), 0W9330Z (oral cavity and throat), 0W9430Z (upper jaw), 0W9530Z (lower jaw), 0W9630Z (neck) and 13 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0W9100Z (open) and 0W9140Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0W913ZZ (no 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.
