About 08P17YZ

08P17YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the left eye using a via natural or artificial opening approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other therapeutic device from head and neck, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.39).

For a different body part, codes include 08P07YZ (right eye).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08P10YZ (open), 08P13YZ (percutaneous) and 08P18YZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 08P170Z (drainage device), 08P171Z (radioactive element), 08P173Z (infusion device), 08P177Z (autologous tissue substitute), 08P17CZ (extraluminal device), 08P17DZ (intraluminal device) and 2 more.

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
