About 08RA3KZ
08RA3KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the right choroid using a percutaneous 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 other operations on ciliary body, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (12.98).
For a different body part, codes include 08R03KZ (right eye), 08R13KZ (left eye), 08R43KZ (right vitreous), 08R53KZ (left vitreous), 08R83KZ (right cornea), 08R93KZ (left cornea) and 13 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08RA0KZ (open).
With a different device, use 08RA37Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 08RA3JZ (synthetic 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.
