About 0VJD4ZZ
0VJD4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the testis using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other diagnostic procedures on testes, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (62.19).
For a different body part, codes include 0VJ44ZZ (prostate and seminal vesicles), 0VJ84ZZ (scrotum and tunica vaginalis), 0VJM4ZZ (epididymis and spermatic cord), 0VJR4ZZ (vas deferens) and 0VJS4ZZ (penis).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VJD0ZZ (open), 0VJD3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0VJDXZZ (external).
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.
