About 0CPY3YZ

0CPY3YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the mouth and throat using a percutaneous 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 incision of mouth, unspecified structure, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (27.92).

For a different body part, codes include 0CPA3YZ (salivary gland) and 0CPS3YZ (larynx).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CPY0YZ (open), 0CPY7YZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0CPY8YZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0CPY30Z (drainage device), 0CPY31Z (radioactive element), 0CPY37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0CPY3DZ (intraluminal device), 0CPY3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0CPY3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
