What is the correct ICD-10-CM code to report the External Cause? Your Answer: V80.010S The External cause code is used for each encounter for which the injury or condition is being treated.
The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.

Post-cholecystectomy syndrome (PCS) is the term used to describe the persistence of biliary colic or right upper quadrant abdominal pain with a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms, which are similar to the features experienced by an individual before cholecystectomy.

A cholecystectomy is surgery to remove your gallbladder. The gallbladder is a small organ under your liver. It is on the upper right side of your belly or abdomen. The gallbladder stores a digestive juice called bile which is made in the liver.
The U.S. also uses ICD-10-CM (Clinical Modification) for diagnostic coding. The main differences between ICD-10 PCS and ICD-10-CM include the following: ICD-10-PCS is used only for inpatient, hospital settings in the U.S., while ICD-10-CM is used in clinical and outpatient settings in the U.S.
Surgical removal of the thymus has no effect on the immune system for someone after they are born. A thymectomy is a surgical procedure of the thymus. It is typically recommended for patients under the age of 60 years who have moderate to severe weakness from myasthenia gravis.
ICD-10-PCS has a seven character alphanumeric code structure. Each character contains up to 34 possible values. Each value represents a specific option for the general character definition (e.g., stomach is one of the values for the body part character).
1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM C54.
A total hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus and cervix. A total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is the removal of the uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes (salpingo) and ovaries (oophor). A radical hysterectomy may be performed to treat cervical or uterine cancer.
double uterus (uterus didelphys) is a congenital uterine malformation resulting from the failure of the paramesonephric (Müllerian) ducts to fuse during embryologic development. The chapter talks about preoperative investigations, surgical route and incision, and operative technique required for the hysterectomy.
Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy. A laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy is a minimally invasive procedure in which a woman's uterus, but not the cervix, is removed using a technique that involves several small abdominal incisions. It is one of the most common surgeries performed on women.
The other CPT code sets are the laparoscopy with vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) (58550-58554) and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (LSH) (58541–58544) code sets.
CPT 58571, Under Laparoscopic/Hysteroscopic Procedures on the Corpus Uteri. The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code 58571 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Laparoscopic/Hysteroscopic Procedures on the Corpus Uteri.
The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a U.S. cataloging system for procedural codes that track various health interventions taken by medical professionals.
There are a few reasons why I prefer PCS coding. One is because CPT® codes are rarely as specific as PCS codes: For any given procedure, CPT® generally offers one or two codes compared to the multiple codes PCS offers .#N#For example, as shown in Figure A, a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oopherectomy (TAHBSO) in CPT® is coded 58150 Total abdominal hysterectomy (corpus and cervix), with or without removal of tube (s), with or without removal of ovary (s); which is not specific as to whether one or both ovaries and fallopian tubes were removed.#N#In PCS, as shown in Figure B, a TAHBSO is four codes (0UT90ZZ, 0UTC0ZZ, 0UT20ZZ, 0UT70ZZ), allowing you to specify the uterus and cervix were completely removed, as well as bilateral ovaries and bilateral fallopian tubes, and that it was an open procedure, not laparoscopic. There are different codes for when only one ovary or fallopian tube is removed, and they are also specific to laterality.
Approach is the fifth character of a PCS code and is the “technique” the physician. used to reach the site of the procedure. There are seven approaches to choose. Not all. approaches are available for each procedure. As shown in Figure F, the procedure.
The simplest way to use the index in PCS is to first look up the defined root operation. From there, it’s easy to find what options are available for that procedure. If you start with the section or even the body system, it’s more difficult and takes more time.#N#Example: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy.#N#Look up the root operation Resection (the entire gallbladder is being removed). Then search for the body part, Gallbladder (0FT4). Next, determine whether the approach was laparoscopic/percutaneous endoscopic or open. There is no device or qualifier available for this procedure, so No Device (Z) and No Qualifier (Z) are the only choices.#N#Some encoders will let you just start with “cholecystectomy” and lead you into Excision – Cutting out or off, without replacement, a part/portion of the body part vs. R esection – Cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part, then Open vs. Laparoscopic. As shown in Figure G, the valid code for laparoscopic cholecystectomy is 0FT44ZZ.#N#The tables show you what options are available for the approach, as well as other characters (body part, device, qualifier) for a given operation (excision, resection, etc.), per the body part the surgery is performed on. For the gallbladder resection, you can see in Figure H, the options for Via Natural or Artificial Opening and V ia Natural or Artificial Opening Endoscopic are grayed out, as they are not available approaches for that body part and procedure.#N#There is no reason to feel overwhelmed when it comes to ICD-10-PCS coding. If you familiarize yourself with the PCS coding guidelines, particularly with previous inpatient coding knowledge and pursue continued education, you’ll find assigning PCS codes easier than expected.
