About 0CPS0YZ
0CPS0YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the larynx using an open approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of larynx or trachea, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (31.3).
For a different body part, codes include 0CPA0YZ (salivary gland) and 0CPY0YZ (mouth and throat).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CPS3YZ (percutaneous), 0CPS7YZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0CPS8YZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0CPS00Z (drainage device), 0CPS07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0CPS0DZ (intraluminal device), 0CPS0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0CPS0KZ (nonautologous tissue 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 was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
