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 SystemW | Anatomical Regions, General |
| 3 | Root OperationP | Removal Taking out or off a device from a body part |
| 4 | Body PartC | Mediastinum |
| 5 | Approach3 | Percutaneous |
| 6 | Device0 | Drainage Device |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
Potential MS-DRG Relationships (FY2026)
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 10 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 04 — Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures: DRG 166, DRG 167, DRG 168
- MDC 05 — Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures: DRG 264
- MDC 21 — Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries: DRG 907, DRG 908, DRG 909
- MDC 24 — Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma: DRG 957, DRG 958, DRG 959
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
