About 08H0X3Z

08H0X3Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right eye using an external approach with infusion 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 08H1X3Z (left eye).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08H033Z (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 08H0X1Z (radioactive element).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), under the surgical category “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”.

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