About 0VHD41Z
0VHD41Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the testis using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with radioactive element. 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.
For a different body part, codes include 0VH041Z (prostate).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VHD01Z (open), 0VHD31Z (percutaneous), 0VHD71Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0VHD81Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0VHD43Z (infusion device) and 0VHD4YZ (other device).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It was added in FY2021, effective October 1, 2020.
