About 09SA0ZZ
09SA0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the left auditory ossicle using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on ossicular chain, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (19.3).
For a different body part, codes include 09S00ZZ (right external ear), 09S10ZZ (left external ear), 09S20ZZ (bilateral external ear), 09S70ZZ (right tympanic membrane), 09S80ZZ (left tympanic membrane), 09S90ZZ (right auditory ossicle) and 5 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09SA4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
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.
