ICD-10-PCS 0GJ Medical and Surgical: Endocrine System Inspection

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Inspection (code beginning with 0GJ) in the Medical and Surgical section involves the visual and/or manual examination of the endocrine system without making any alterations. It is used to assess the condition of endocrine glands or related structures.

This inspection can be conducted using various approaches, including an Open Approach, Percutaneous Approach, or Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach. Examples include the inspection of the Pituitary Gland (codes 0GJ00ZZ, 0GJ03ZZ, 0GJ04ZZ), the Pineal Body (0GJ10ZZ, 0GJ13ZZ, 0GJ14ZZ), and the Adrenal Gland (0GJ50ZZ, 0GJ53ZZ, 0GJ54ZZ). Similar inspection codes exist for the Thyroid (0GJK0ZZ, 0GJK3ZZ, 0GJK4ZZ) and Parathyroid Glands (0GJR0ZZ, 0GJR3ZZ, 0GJR4ZZ). These specific ICD-10-PCS inspection codes allow precise documentation of diagnostic evaluations within the endocrine system, supporting accurate procedural reporting and patient care management.
