About 0VUG47Z

0VUG47Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left spermatic cord using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous 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 spermatic cord and epididymis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (63.59).

For a different body part, codes include 0VU147Z (right seminal vesicle), 0VU247Z (left seminal vesicle), 0VU347Z (bilateral seminal vesicles), 0VU547Z (scrotum), 0VU647Z (right tunica vaginalis), 0VU747Z (left tunica vaginalis) and 10 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VUG07Z (open) and 0VUG87Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0VUG4JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0VUG4KZ (nonautologous tissue 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.
