About 0U9F00Z

0U9F00Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the cul-de-sac using an open 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 Culdotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.12).

For a different body part, codes include 0U9000Z (right ovary), 0U9100Z (left ovary), 0U9200Z (bilateral ovaries), 0U9400Z (uterine supporting structure), 0U9500Z (right fallopian tube), 0U9600Z (left fallopian tube) and 8 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0U9F30Z (percutaneous), 0U9F40Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0U9F70Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0U9F80Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0U9F0ZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 749 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 750 (Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures”.

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