About 0UP3X0Z

0UP3X0Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the ovary using an external approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other device from genital tract, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.79).

For a different body part, codes include 0UP8X0Z (fallopian tube), 0UPDX0Z (uterus and cervix), 0UPHX0Z (vagina and cul-de-sac) and 0UPMX0Z (vulva).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UP300Z (open), 0UP330Z (percutaneous) and 0UP340Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0UP3X3Z (infusion device).

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.
