About 0LHY4YZ
0LHY4YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the lower tendon using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other tenotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.13).
For a different body part, codes include 0LHX4YZ (upper tendon).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LHY0YZ (open) and 0LHY3YZ (percutaneous).
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.
