About 09C74ZZ
09C74ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the right tympanic membrane using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other myringotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (20.09).
For a different body part, codes include 09C04ZZ (right external ear), 09C14ZZ (left external ear), 09C34ZZ (right external auditory canal), 09C44ZZ (left external auditory canal), 09C84ZZ (left tympanic membrane), 09CB4ZZ (right mastoid sinus) and 16 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09C70ZZ (open), 09C73ZZ (percutaneous), 09C77ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 09C78ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
