About 085F3ZZ

085F3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a destruction procedure on the left retina using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, destruction means physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy, force, or a destructive agent.

In plain terms, this corresponds to destruction of chorioretinal lesion by diathermy, destruction of chorioretinal lesion by cryotherapy, destruction of chorioretinal lesion by xenon arc photocoagulation and 4 more, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (14.21, 14.22, 14.23 and 4 more).

For a different body part, codes include 08523ZZ (right anterior chamber), 08533ZZ (left anterior chamber), 08543ZZ (right vitreous), 08553ZZ (left vitreous), 085A3ZZ (right choroid), 085B3ZZ (left choroid) and 17 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.
