About 09HD01Z
09HD01Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right inner ear using an open approach with radioactive element. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09HD31Z (percutaneous) and 09HD41Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 09HD04Z (hearing device, bone conduction), 09HD05Z (hearing device, single channel cochlear prosthesis), 09HD06Z (hearing device, multiple channel cochlear prosthesis) and 09HD0SZ (hearing device).
