About 08P07JZ

08P07JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the right eye using a via natural or artificial opening approach with synthetic substitute. 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 lacrimal passages, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (09.59).

For a different body part, codes include 08P17JZ (left eye).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08P00JZ (open), 08P03JZ (percutaneous), 08P08JZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 08P0XJZ (external).

With a different device, use 08P070Z (drainage device), 08P071Z (radioactive element), 08P073Z (infusion device), 08P077Z (autologous tissue substitute), 08P07CZ (extraluminal device), 08P07DZ (intraluminal device) and 2 more.

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.
