About 0TPD73Z

0TPD73Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the urethra using a via natural or artificial opening approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other device from urinary system, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.69).

For a different body part, codes include 0TP573Z (kidney), 0TP973Z (ureter) and 0TPB73Z (bladder).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0TPD03Z (open), 0TPD33Z (percutaneous), 0TPD43Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0TPD83Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0TPDX3Z (external).

With a different device, use 0TPD70Z (drainage device), 0TPD72Z (monitoring device), 0TPD77Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0TPD7CZ (extraluminal device), 0TPD7DZ (intraluminal device), 0TPD7JZ (synthetic substitute) and 3 more.

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.
