About 0U9KXZX

0U9KXZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the hymen using an external 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 other diagnostic procedures on vagina and cul-de-sac, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.29).

For a different body part, codes include 0U9GXZX (vagina), 0U9JXZX (clitoris), 0U9LXZX (vestibular gland) and 0U9MXZX (vulva).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0U9K0ZX (open), 0U9K3ZX (percutaneous), 0U9K4ZX (percutaneous endoscopic), 0U9K7ZX (via natural or artificial opening) and 0U9K8ZX (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 746 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 747 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures”.

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