0B5K3Z3 ICD-10-PCS Code: Destruction of Right Lung using Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy, Percutaneous Approach
Destruction of Right Lung using LITT, Perc Approach
Axis Breakdown
Every ICD-10-PCS code is exactly seven characters, one per axis. Each character's meaning is defined by its position in the code.
| Position | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Section0 | Medical and Surgical |
| 2 | Body SystemB | Respiratory System |
| 3 | Root Operation5 | Destruction Physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent |
| 4 | Body PartK | Lung, Right |
| 5 | Approach3 | Percutaneous |
| 6 | DeviceZ | No Device |
| 7 | Qualifier3 | Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy |
MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2027)
Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 3 MS-DRGs:
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
