About 0CCS8ZZ
0CCS8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the larynx using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of intraluminal foreign body from larynx without incision, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (98.14).
For a different body part, codes include 0CCM8ZZ (pharynx), 0CCR8ZZ (epiglottis), 0CCT8ZZ (right vocal cord) and 0CCV8ZZ (left vocal cord).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CCS0ZZ (open), 0CCS3ZZ (percutaneous), 0CCS4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0CCS7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).
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.
