About 00P032Z

00P032Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the brain using a percutaneous approach with monitoring device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of brain, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (01.39).

For a different body part, codes include 00P632Z (cerebral ventricle), 00PE32Z (cranial nerve), 00PU32Z (spinal canal) and 00PV32Z (spinal cord).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 00P002Z (open), 00P042Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 00P0X2Z (external).

With a different device, use 00P030Z (drainage device), 00P033Z (infusion device), 00P037Z (autologous tissue substitute), 00P03JZ (synthetic substitute), 00P03KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute), 00P03MZ (neurostimulator lead) and 1 more.

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
