About 0WP800Z

0WP800Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the chest wall using an open approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of chest wall, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (34.01).

For a different body part, codes include 0WP000Z (head), 0WP100Z (cranial cavity), 0WP200Z (face), 0WP400Z (upper jaw), 0WP500Z (lower jaw), 0WP600Z (neck) and 12 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WP830Z (percutaneous), 0WP840Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0WP8X0Z (external).

With a different device, use 0WP801Z (radioactive element), 0WP803Z (infusion device), 0WP807Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0WP80JZ (synthetic substitute), 0WP80KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0WP80YZ (other 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.
