About 0VH803Z

0VH803Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the scrotum and tunica vaginalis using an open approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0VH403Z (prostate and seminal vesicles), 0VHD03Z (testis), 0VHM03Z (epididymis and spermatic cord), 0VHR03Z (vas deferens) and 0VHS03Z (penis).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VH833Z (percutaneous), 0VH843Z (percutaneous endoscopic), 0VH873Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0VH883Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0VH80YZ (other device).

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.
