About 08PM30Z

08PM30Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the left extraocular muscle using a percutaneous approach with drainage 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 08P030Z (right eye), 08P130Z (left eye) and 08PL30Z (right extraocular muscle).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08PM00Z (open).

With a different device, use 08PM37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 08PM3JZ (synthetic substitute), 08PM3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 08PM3YZ (other device).

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