About 0UBJXZX
0UBJXZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the clitoris using an external approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to operations on clitoris, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (71.4).
For a different body part, codes include 0UBGXZX (vagina), 0UBKXZX (hymen), 0UBLXZX (vestibular gland) and 0UBMXZX (vulva).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UBJ0ZX (open).
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.
