About 0YP9XYZ

0YP9XYZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the right lower extremity using an external approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other therapeutic device, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.89).

For a different body part, codes include 0YPBXYZ (left lower extremity).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0YP90YZ (open), 0YP93YZ (percutaneous) and 0YP94YZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0YP9X0Z (drainage device), 0YP9X1Z (radioactive element), 0YP9X3Z (infusion device), 0YP9X7Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0YP9XJZ (synthetic substitute) and 0YP9XKZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

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.
