About 0WHF0YZ

0WHF0YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the abdominal wall using an open approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of abdominal wall, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (54.0).

For a different body part, codes include 0WH00YZ (head), 0WH10YZ (cranial cavity), 0WH20YZ (face), 0WH30YZ (oral cavity and throat), 0WH40YZ (upper jaw), 0WH50YZ (lower jaw) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WHF3YZ (percutaneous) and 0WHF4YZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0WHF01Z (radioactive element) and 0WHF03Z (infusion device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 356 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 357 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 358 (Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Digestive System O.R. Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

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