About 0TH982Z
0TH982Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the ureter using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach with monitoring 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 nonoperative genitourinary system measurements, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (89.29).
For a different body part, codes include 0TH582Z (kidney), 0THB82Z (bladder) and 0THD82Z (urethra).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TH902Z (open), 0TH932Z (percutaneous), 0TH942Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0TH972Z (via natural or artificial opening).
With a different device, use 0TH981Z (radioactive element), 0TH983Z (infusion device), 0TH98MZ (stimulator lead) and 0TH98YZ (other device).
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.
