About 0N9X40Z

0N9X40Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the hyoid bone using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of facial bone, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (76.09).

For a different body part, codes include 0N9040Z (skull), 0N9140Z (frontal bone), 0N9340Z (right parietal bone), 0N9440Z (left parietal bone), 0N9540Z (right temporal bone), 0N9640Z (left temporal bone) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0N9X00Z (open) and 0N9X30Z (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0N9X4ZZ (no device).

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 has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
