About 08H00YZ
08H00YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right eye using an open approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on eyeball, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (16.99).
For a different body part, codes include 08H10YZ (left eye).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08H03YZ (percutaneous), 08H07YZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 08H08YZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 08H005Z (epiretinal visual prosthesis).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 116 (Intraocular Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 117 (Intraocular Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Intraocular Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
