About 08RA37Z

08RA37Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the right choroid using a percutaneous approach with autologous 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 other operations on ciliary body, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (12.98).

For a different body part, codes include 08R037Z (right eye), 08R137Z (left eye), 08R437Z (right vitreous), 08R537Z (left vitreous), 08R837Z (right cornea), 08R937Z (left cornea) and 13 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08RA07Z (open).

With a different device, use 08RA3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 08RA3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 116 (Intraocular Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 117 (Intraocular Procedures without CC/MCC), 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) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Intraocular Procedures”, “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.
