ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System 0G - Endocrine System

The ICD-10-PCS root operations in the Medical and Surgical section for the Endocrine System categorize various procedures related to treatment and management of endocrine organs. These root operations involve actions ranging from removing devices to cutting, destroying, or repairing body parts within this system.

For example, the root operation Change (0G2) refers to taking out and then replacing a device on the same body part without puncturing the skin. Destruction (0G5) involves the eradication of all or part of an endocrine body part using energy or force. Procedures like Division (0G8) cut into an endocrine organ to separate it, while Drainage (0G9) removes fluids or gases. Insertion (0GH) adds a non-biological device that assists or monitors endocrine function. Additionally, Inspection (0GJ) allows visually or manually exploring an endocrine body part, crucial for diagnosis. These codes provide precise descriptors for documenting procedures such as removing solid matter (Extirpation), restoring structure (Repair), or resecting an entire body part (Resection), enhancing clarity in endocrine system coding.

List of ICD-10-PCS procedures under ICD-10-PCS Body System 0G - Endocrine System

• 0G2 - Change - Taking out or off a device from a body part and putting back an identical or similar device in or on the same body part without cutting or puncturing the skin or a mucous membrane

• 0G5 - Destruction - Physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force or a destructive agent

• 0G9 - Drainage - Taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part

• 0GB - Excision - Cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part

• 0GC - Extirpation - Taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part

• 0GH - Insertion - Putting in a non-biological appliance that monitors, assists, performs or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part

• 0GJ - Inspection - Visually and/or manually exploring a body part

• 0GM - Reattachment - Putting back in or on all or a portion of a separated body part to its normal location or other suitable location

• 0GN - Release - Freeing a body part from an abnormal physical constraint by cutting or by use of force
