About 08U03KZ
08U03KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the right eye using a percutaneous approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on eyeball, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (16.99).
For a different body part, codes include 08U13KZ (left eye), 08U83KZ (right cornea), 08U93KZ (left cornea), 08UC3KZ (right iris), 08UD3KZ (left iris), 08UE3KZ (right retina) and 11 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08U00KZ (open).
With a different device, use 08U037Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 08U03JZ (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.
