Y72.0Diagnostic and monitoring otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents

Y72.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for diagnostic and monitoring otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents. It belongs to category Y72 (otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents), block Y70-Y82 (medical devices associated with adverse incidents in diagnostic and therapeutic use) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within Y72 (otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents), Y72.0 is specifically for diagnostic and monitoring otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents. Related codes cover therapeutic (nonsurgical) and rehabilitative otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents (Y72.1), prosthetic and other implants, materials and accessory otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents (Y72.2), surgical instruments, materials and otorhinolaryngological devices (including sutures) associated with adverse incidents (Y72.3) and miscellaneous otorhinolaryngological devices associated with adverse incidents, not elsewhere classified (Y72.8).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
