About 09UM4KZ
09UM4KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the nasal septum using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other septoplasty, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (21.88).
For a different body part, codes include 09UB4KZ (right mastoid sinus), 09UC4KZ (left mastoid sinus), 09UL4KZ (nasal turbinate), 09UP4KZ (accessory sinus), 09UQ4KZ (right maxillary sinus), 09UR4KZ (left maxillary sinus) and 6 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09UM0KZ (open), 09UM3KZ (percutaneous) and 09UM8KZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 09UM47Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 09UM4JZ (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), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and 2 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
