About 08P13JZ

08P13JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the left eye using a percutaneous 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 removal of surgically implanted material from posterior segment of eye, removal of epiretinal visual prosthesis and other operations on eyeball, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (14.6, 14.82 and 16.99).

For a different body part, codes include 08P03JZ (right eye), 08PJ3JZ (right lens), 08PK3JZ (left lens), 08PL3JZ (right extraocular muscle) and 08PM3JZ (left extraocular muscle).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08P10JZ (open), 08P17JZ (via natural or artificial opening), 08P18JZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 08P1XJZ (external).

With a different device, use 08P130Z (drainage device), 08P131Z (radioactive element), 08P133Z (infusion device), 08P137Z (autologous tissue substitute), 08P13CZ (extraluminal device), 08P13DZ (intraluminal device) and 2 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), DRG 628 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 629 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 630 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC) and DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), under the surgical categories “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

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