About 0XB64ZX
0XB64ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right upper extremity 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 closed biopsy of skin and subcutaneous tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (86.11).
For a different body part, codes include 0XB24ZX (right shoulder region), 0XB34ZX (left shoulder region), 0XB44ZX (right axilla), 0XB54ZX (left axilla), 0XB74ZX (left upper extremity), 0XB84ZX (right upper arm) and 9 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0XB60ZX (open) and 0XB63ZX (percutaneous).
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.
