ICD-10-PCS Section 0
Medical and Surgical

The Medical and Surgical section codes represent the vast majority of procedures reported in an inpatient setting. Medical and surgical procedure codes have a first character value of "0". The 2nd character indicates the general body system (e.g., gastrointestinal).

The first through fifth characters are always assigned a specific value, but the device (6th character) and the qualifier (7th character) are not applicable to all procedures.
