Jejunum Excision Procedure Overview
Procedures in this group involve excision of a portion of the jejunum and target the gastrointestinal system.

Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of jejunal excisions is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the specific operation and extent of tissue removed, which affects case mix and payment.
