00K04ZZ PCS Table

In an PCS table each code is represented by up seven alphanumeric characters, with each character in the table respresenting different aspects of the procedure. In the table provided below, each row represents an individual character and includes information about the character's position, designation, label, and procedure notes. For this PCS table the procedure code is in the medical and surgical section and is part of the central nervous system and cranial nerves body system, classified under map operation. The applicable bodypart for this procedure code is brain.

Position	Designation	Character	Label	Procedures Notes
1	Section	0	Medical and Surgical
2	Body System	0	Central Nervous System and Cranial Nerves
3	Operation	K	Map	Involves: Locating the route of passage of electrical impulses and/or locating functional areas in a body part Explanation: Applicable only to the cardiac conduction mechanism and the central nervous system Includes: Cardiac mapping, cortical mapping
4	BodyPart	0	Brain	Includes: Cerebrum Corpus callosum Encephalon
5	Approach	4	Percutaneous Endoscopic	Involves: Entry, by puncture or minor incision, of instrumentation through the skin or mucous membrane and any other body layers necessary to reach and visualize the site of the procedure
6	Device	Z	No Device	Explanation: The value Z is used for the sixth character to indicate that a specific device does not apply to the procedure.
7	Qualifier	Z	No Qualifier	Explanation: The value Z is used for the seventh character to indicate that a specific qualifier does not apply to the procedure.

Clinical Classification

Clinical Category is Minimally invasive CNS biopsy
CCSR Category Code: CNS001

00K04ZZ is grouped with Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping

Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a classification system used to group together procedures for the purpose of reimbursement and healthcare management. DRGs are used to standardize the way hospitals and other providers are paid for inpatient services. In this system patients are grouped together based on the primary procedure being performed. Once a patient is assigned a particular group, providers receive a predetermined payment rate for the services rendered. This reimbursement rate is often fixed and is meant to cover the cost of care associated with a particular procedure. Reimbursement is also affected by the relative weight of a diagnostic related group based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Diagnostic related groups encourage healthcare providers to focus on quality and efficiency in patient care while managing costs effectively. The procedure code 00K04ZZ is present in the following groups for version MS-DRG V42.0 applicable from 10/01/2024 through 09/30/2025.

MS-DRG	MS-DRG Title	MCD

What is ICD-10-PCS?

The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a catalog of procedural codes used by medical professionals for hospital inpatient healthcare settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates. The 2025 ICD-10-PCS codes are to be used for discharges occurring from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025.

Each ICD-10-PCS code has a structure of seven alphanumeric characters and contains no decimals. The first character defines the major "section". Depending on the "section" the second through seventh characters mean different things.
