About 0UPD8CZ

0UPD8CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the uterus and cervix using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach with extraluminal 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 0UP88CZ (fallopian tube).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UPD0CZ (open), 0UPD3CZ (percutaneous), 0UPD4CZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0UPD7CZ (via natural or artificial opening).

With a different device, use 0UPD80Z (drainage device), 0UPD81Z (radioactive element), 0UPD83Z (infusion device), 0UPD87Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0UPD8DZ (intraluminal device), 0UPD8HZ (contraceptive device) and 3 more.

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.
