About 3E0P3LZ
3E0P3LZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the female reproductive using a percutaneous approach with sperm. In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.
In plain terms, this corresponds to artificial insemination, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (69.92).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 3E0P7LZ (via natural or artificial opening).
With a different device, use 3E0P33Z (anti-inflammatory), 3E0P35Z (adhesion barrier), 3E0P36Z (nutritional substance), 3E0P37Z (electrolytic and water balance substance), 3E0P3BZ (anesthetic agent), 3E0P3HZ (radioactive substance) and 4 more.
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.
