About 08PM0YZ

08PM0YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the left extraocular muscle using an open 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 other operations on extraocular muscles and tendons, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (15.9).

For a different body part, codes include 08P00YZ (right eye), 08P10YZ (left eye) and 08PL0YZ (right extraocular muscle).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08PM3YZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 08PM00Z (drainage device), 08PM07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 08PM0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 08PM0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC) and DRG 958 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with CC), under the surgical categories “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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