About 0VUB0KZ
0VUB0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left testis using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of testis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (62.69).
For a different body part, codes include 0VU10KZ (right seminal vesicle), 0VU20KZ (left seminal vesicle), 0VU30KZ (bilateral seminal vesicles), 0VU50KZ (scrotum), 0VU60KZ (right tunica vaginalis), 0VU70KZ (left tunica vaginalis) and 13 more.
With a different device, use 0VUB07Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0VUB0JZ (synthetic substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 711 (Testes Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 712 (Testes Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Testes Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
