About 0UVC0ZZ

0UVC0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a restriction procedure on the cervix using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, restriction means partially closing an orifice or the lumen of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Transabdominal cerclage of cervix, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (67.51).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UVC3ZZ (percutaneous), 0UVC4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UVC7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0UVC8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0UVC0CZ (extraluminal device) and 0UVC0DZ (intraluminal device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 746 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 747 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
