About 0V908ZX

0V908ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the prostate using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to closed [percutaneous] [needle] biopsy of prostate, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (60.11).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0V900ZX (open), 0V903ZX (percutaneous), 0V904ZX (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0V907ZX (via natural or artificial opening).

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.
