About 08P137Z

08P137Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the left eye using a percutaneous approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from 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 08P037Z (right eye), 08PL37Z (right extraocular muscle) and 08PM37Z (left extraocular muscle).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08P107Z (open), 08P177Z (via natural or artificial opening), 08P187Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 08P1X7Z (external).

With a different device, use 08P130Z (drainage device), 08P131Z (radioactive element), 08P133Z (infusion device), 08P13CZ (extraluminal device), 08P13DZ (intraluminal device), 08P13JZ (synthetic substitute) 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.
