About 0WHF33Z

0WHF33Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the abdominal wall using a percutaneous approach with infusion 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 0WH033Z (head), 0WH133Z (cranial cavity), 0WH233Z (face), 0WH333Z (oral cavity and throat), 0WH433Z (upper jaw), 0WH533Z (lower jaw) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WHF03Z (open) and 0WHF43Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0WHF31Z (radioactive element) and 0WHF3YZ (other 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.
