Hepatic Duct, Right Bypass Procedure Overview
Procedures in this group involve creating an alternate pathway to reroute biliary flow from the right hepatic duct within the hepatobiliary system and pancreas. These operations are bypass procedures that divert the contents of the right hepatic duct to another duct or conduit. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these bypass procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the exact operation and anatomical site, which affects case mix designation and payment.
