About 0V1Q0JK

0V1Q0JK is the ICD-10-PCS code for a bypass procedure on the bilateral vas deferens using an open approach with synthetic substitute (qualifier: left epididymis). In ICD-10-PCS, bypass means altering the route of passage of the contents of a tubular body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Epididymovasostomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (63.83).

For a different body part, codes include 0V1N0JK (right vas deferens) and 0V1P0JK (left vas deferens).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0V1Q4JK (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0V1Q07K (autologous tissue substitute), 0V1Q0KK (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0V1Q0ZK (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 711 (Testes Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 712 (Testes Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Testes Procedures”.

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