About 08R00KZ

08R00KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the right eye using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to enucleation of eyeball with other synchronous implant and other operations on eyeball, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (16.42 and 16.99).

For a different body part, codes include 08R10KZ (left eye), 08RA0KZ (right choroid), 08RB0KZ (left choroid), 08RN0KZ (right upper eyelid), 08RP0KZ (left upper eyelid), 08RQ0KZ (right lower eyelid) and 3 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08R03KZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 08R007Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 08R00JZ (synthetic substitute).

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.
