About 0UF97ZZ
0UF97ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fragmentation procedure on the uterus using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, fragmentation means breaking solid matter in a body part into pieces.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on cervix and uterus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (69.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0UF57ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UF67ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 0UF77ZZ (bilateral fallopian tubes).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UF90ZZ (open), 0UF93ZZ (percutaneous), 0UF94ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UF98ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0UF9XZZ (external).
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.
