About 09HJ8YZ
09HJ8YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the left ear using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach with other device. 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.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).
For a different body part, codes include 09HH8YZ (right ear), 09HK8YZ (nasal mucosa and soft tissue) and 09HY8YZ (sinus).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09HJ0YZ (open), 09HJ3YZ (percutaneous), 09HJ4YZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 09HJ7YZ (via natural or artificial opening).
With a different device, use 09HJ81Z (radioactive element).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
