About 0T9D4ZX
0T9D4ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the urethra using a percutaneous endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of urethra, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (58.23).
For a different body part, codes include 0T904ZX (right kidney), 0T914ZX (left kidney), 0T934ZX (right kidney pelvis), 0T944ZX (left kidney pelvis), 0T964ZX (right ureter), 0T974ZX (left ureter) and 3 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0T9D0ZX (open), 0T9D3ZX (percutaneous), 0T9D7ZX (via natural or artificial opening), 0T9D8ZX (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0T9DXZX (external).
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.
