About 0TPD42Z
0TPD42Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the urethra using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with monitoring device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Urethrotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (58.0).
For a different body part, codes include 0TP542Z (kidney), 0TP942Z (ureter) and 0TPB42Z (bladder).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TPD02Z (open), 0TPD32Z (percutaneous), 0TPD72Z (via natural or artificial opening), 0TPD82Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TPDX2Z (external).
With a different device, use 0TPD40Z (drainage device), 0TPD43Z (infusion device), 0TPD47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0TPD4CZ (extraluminal device), 0TPD4DZ (intraluminal device), 0TPD4JZ (synthetic substitute) and 3 more.
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 671 (Urethral Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 672 (Urethral Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Urethral Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
