About 0UPH80Z

0UPH80Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the vagina and cul-de-sac using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic 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 0UP880Z (fallopian tube) and 0UPD80Z (uterus and cervix).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UPH00Z (open), 0UPH30Z (percutaneous), 0UPH40Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UPH70Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0UPHX0Z (external).

With a different device, use 0UPH81Z (radioactive element), 0UPH83Z (infusion device), 0UPH87Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0UPH8DZ (intraluminal device), 0UPH8JZ (synthetic substitute), 0UPH8KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 1 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.
