About 0WB84ZX
0WB84ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the chest wall using a percutaneous endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of chest wall, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (34.23).
For a different body part, codes include 0WB04ZX (head), 0WB24ZX (face), 0WB34ZX (oral cavity and throat), 0WB44ZX (upper jaw), 0WB54ZX (lower jaw), 0WB64ZX (neck) and 7 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WB80ZX (open), 0WB83ZX (percutaneous) and 0WB8XZX (external).
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.
