About 00PV02Z

00PV02Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the spinal cord using an open 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 chordotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (03.29).

For a different body part, codes include 00P002Z (brain), 00P602Z (cerebral ventricle), 00PE02Z (cranial nerve) and 00PU02Z (spinal canal).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 00PV32Z (percutaneous), 00PV42Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 00PVX2Z (external).

With a different device, use 00PV00Z (drainage device), 00PV03Z (infusion device), 00PV07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 00PV0JZ (synthetic substitute), 00PV0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute), 00PV0MZ (neurostimulator lead) and 1 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 028 (Spinal Procedures with MCC), DRG 029 (Spinal Procedures with CC or Spinal Neurostimulators), DRG 030 (Spinal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 423 (Other Hepatobiliary or Pancreas O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 424 (Other Hepatobiliary or Pancreas O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 425 (Other Hepatobiliary or Pancreas O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Spinal Procedures”, “Other Hepatobiliary or Pancreas O.R. Procedures”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and 3 more.

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