About F00Z8MZ

F00Z8MZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a speech assessment procedure on the none using a receptive/expressive language approach with augmentative / alternative communication (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 F00Z6MZ (speech and/or language screening), F00Z7MZ (nonspoken language), F00ZCMZ (aphasia), F00ZGMZ (communicative/cognitive integration skills) and F00ZLMZ (augmentative/alternative communication system).

With a different device, use F00Z8KZ (audiovisual), F00Z8PZ (computer), F00Z8YZ (other equipment) and F00Z8ZZ (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.
