About 09QF4ZZ
09QF4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the right eustachian tube using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.
In plain terms, this corresponds to operations on eustachian tube, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (20.8).
For a different body part, codes include 09Q04ZZ (right external ear), 09Q14ZZ (left external ear), 09Q24ZZ (bilateral external ear), 09Q34ZZ (right external auditory canal), 09Q44ZZ (left external auditory canal), 09Q74ZZ (right tympanic membrane) and 17 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09QF0ZZ (open), 09QF3ZZ (percutaneous), 09QF7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 09QF8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 09QFXZZ (external).
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.
