0THB81Z ICD-10-PCS Code: Insertion of Radioactive Element into Bladder, Via Natural or Artificial Opening Endoscopic
Insertion of Radioactive Element into Bladder, Endo
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 SystemT | Urinary System |
| 3 | Root OperationH | Insertion 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 |
| 4 | Body PartB | Bladder |
| 5 | Approach8 | Via Natural or Artificial Opening Endoscopic |
| 6 | Device1 | Radioactive Element |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
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 6 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 11 — Minor Bladder Procedures: DRG 662, DRG 663, DRG 664
- MDC 21 — Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries: DRG 907, DRG 908, DRG 909
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
