About F00Z29Z

F00Z29Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a speech assessment procedure on the none using a speech/word recognition approach with cochlear implant (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, speech assessment means measurement of speech and related functions.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other speech training and therapy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (93.75).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded F00Z19Z (speech threshold) and F00Z59Z (synthetic sentence identification).

With a different device, use F00Z21Z (audiometer), F00Z22Z (sound field / booth), F00Z2KZ (audiovisual) and F00Z2ZZ (none).

It is a non-O.R. procedure that is part of the MS-DRG logic for DRG 945 (Rehabilitation with CC/MCC) and DRG 946 (Rehabilitation without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Rehabilitation”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
