About 0CPSXKZ

0CPSXKZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the larynx using an external approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other therapeutic device from head and neck, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.39).

For a different body part, codes include 0CPYXKZ (mouth and throat).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CPS0KZ (open), 0CPS3KZ (percutaneous), 0CPS7KZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0CPS8KZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0CPSX0Z (drainage device), 0CPSX7Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0CPSXDZ (intraluminal device) and 0CPSXJZ (synthetic substitute).

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.
