About 0HUX8KZ
0HUX8KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left nipple using a via natural or artificial opening 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 repair or reconstruction of nipple, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (85.87).
For a different body part, codes include 0HUT8KZ (right breast), 0HUU8KZ (left breast), 0HUV8KZ (bilateral breast) and 0HUW8KZ (right nipple).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0HUX0KZ (open), 0HUX3KZ (percutaneous), 0HUX7KZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0HUXXKZ (external).
With a different device, use 0HUX87Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0HUX8JZ (synthetic substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 584 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 585 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
