About 0UHH03Z

0UHH03Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the vagina and cul-de-sac using an open approach with infusion 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 other vaginotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.14).

For a different body part, codes include 0UH303Z (ovary), 0UH803Z (fallopian tube) and 0UHD03Z (uterus and cervix).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UHH33Z (percutaneous), 0UHH43Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UHH73Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0UHH83Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0UHH0YZ (other device).

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.
