ICD-10-PCS Code For Liver Left Lobe: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group 0FH2 includes procedures performed to insert monitoring devices in the left lobe of the liver. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a nonbiological appliance is placed to monitor or support physiological function in the hepatobiliary system and pancreas. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS 0FH2 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Left Lobe Insertion Procedure Overview

Procedures in this group involve insertion of a nonbiological monitoring device into the left lobe of the liver and target the hepatobiliary system and pancreas. These insertion procedures place an appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function without replacing a body part. Accurate ICD-10-PCS assignment is important for inpatient reimbursement and clinical documentation because it captures the specific operation and anatomical site. Proper coding ensures the procedure is reflected in the medical record and supports correct case mix assignment.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when an appliance is placed into the left lobe of the liver specifically to monitor or support physiological function. These codes are reported for inpatient encounters where the insertion procedure is documented as the operative action.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An adult patient with advanced cirrhosis is admitted for evaluation of refractory hepatic hydrothorax and portal hypertension–related hemodynamic instability. Interventional radiology places a monitoring catheter directly into the left lobe of the liver via a percutaneous approach to measure intraparenchymal pressures and guide ongoing management. The device is intended to continuously monitor hepatic pressures and assist medical decision-making during the inpatient stay. Typical codes: 0FH232Z
A scheduled inpatient admission for placement of a permanent hepatic monitoring appliance in a patient with recurrent hepatic encephalopathy being evaluated for transplant. Through an open surgical approach, the surgeon inserts a nonbiological monitoring device into the left lobe of the liver to provide long-term physiologic data to optimize pretransplant care and medication adjustments. This is a planned procedure to establish reliable hepatic monitoring. Typical codes: 0FH202Z
A patient previously had a left lobe hepatic infusion port placed but presents with device malfunction and inability to obtain reliable pressures; the team elects to revise the therapy by removing the infusion-specific component and placing a dedicated monitoring appliance percutaneously into the left lobe. The conversion is performed percutaneous endoscopic guidance to restore continuous physiologic monitoring and address the complication of the prior device. Typical codes: 0FH233Z, 0FH242Z
