About the 0WJ Code Range

These procedures explore a body region by looking at it or feeling it. The sites include the head, neck, chest, abdomen and pelvis, as well as the gastrointestinal, respiratory and genitourinary tracts.

The fourth character identifies the site. It distinguishes the right and left pleural cavities and the male and female perineum. The fifth character records the approach: open exposure, a puncture or small incision with or without a scope, entry through a natural or artificial opening with or without a scope, or an external approach. The sixth character is No Device, and the seventh is No Qualifier.
