About 09R80KZ

09R80KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the left tympanic membrane using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on middle and inner ear, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (20.99).

For a different body part, codes include 09R00KZ (right external ear), 09R10KZ (left external ear), 09R20KZ (bilateral external ear), 09R50KZ (right middle ear), 09R60KZ (left middle ear), 09R70KZ (right tympanic membrane) and 8 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09R87KZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 09R88KZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 09R807Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 09R80JZ (synthetic substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
