0YBC0ZZ ICD-10-PCS Code: Excision of Right Upper Leg, Open 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 SystemY | Anatomical Regions, Lower Extremities |
| 3 | Root OperationB | Excision Cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part |
| 4 | Body PartC | Upper Leg, Right |
| 5 | Approach0 | Open |
| 6 | DeviceZ | No Device |
| 7 | QualifierZ | No Qualifier |
MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)
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 19 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 01 — Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures: DRG 040, DRG 041, DRG 042
- MDC 05 — Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures: DRG 264
- MDC 08 — Soft Tissue Procedures: DRG 500, DRG 501, DRG 502
- MDC 09 — Skin Graft: DRG 573, DRG 574, DRG 575, DRG 576, DRG 577, DRG 578
- 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.
