About 0UH97HZ

0UH97HZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the uterus using a via natural or artificial opening approach with contraceptive device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to insertion of intrauterine contraceptive device, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (69.7).

For a different body part, codes include 0UHC7HZ (cervix).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UH90HZ (open) and 0UH98HZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0UH971Z (radioactive element).

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.
