About 3E0J7BZ

3E0J7BZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the biliary and pancreatic tract using a via natural or artificial opening approach with anesthetic agent. In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.

In plain terms, this corresponds to localized perfusion of liver, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (50.93).

For a different body part, codes include 3E097BZ (nose), 3E0B7BZ (ear), 3E0C7BZ (eye), 3E0D7BZ (mouth and pharynx), 3E0E7BZ (products of conception), 3E0F7BZ (respiratory tract) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E0J3BZ (percutaneous) and 3E0J8BZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 3E0J73Z (anti-inflammatory), 3E0J76Z (nutritional substance), 3E0J77Z (electrolytic and water balance substance), 3E0J7HZ (radioactive substance), 3E0J7KZ (other diagnostic substance), 3E0J7NZ (analgesics, hypnotics, sedatives) and 1 more.

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.
