About 09HK41Z

09HK41Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the nasal mucosa and soft tissue using a percutaneous endoscopic 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.

For a different body part, codes include 09HD41Z (right inner ear), 09HE41Z (left inner ear), 09HH41Z (right ear), 09HJ41Z (left ear) and 09HY41Z (sinus).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09HK01Z (open), 09HK31Z (percutaneous), 09HK71Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 09HK81Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 09HK4YZ (other device).

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 FY2021, effective October 1, 2020.
