About 01PY30Z

01PY30Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the peripheral nerve using a percutaneous approach with drainage 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 cranial and peripheral nerves and other operations on sympathetic nerves or ganglia, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (04.04 and 05.89).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 01PY00Z (open), 01PY40Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 01PYX0Z (external).

With a different device, use 01PY32Z (monitoring device), 01PY37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 01PY3MZ (neurostimulator lead) and 01PY3YZ (other device).

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.
