About 01JY0ZZ
01JY0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the peripheral nerve using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other diagnostic procedures on cranial and peripheral nerves and ganglia and other diagnostic procedures on sympathetic nerves or ganglia, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (04.19 and 05.19).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 01JY3ZZ (percutaneous) and 01JY4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator) and DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
