About F15Z2ZZ

F15Z2ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a vestibular assessment procedure on the none using an unithermal binaural screen approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, vestibular assessment means measurement of the vestibular system and related functions.

In plain terms, this corresponds to clinical vestibular function tests, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (95.44).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded F15Z0ZZ (bithermal, binaural caloric irrigation), F15Z1ZZ (bithermal, monaural caloric irrigation), F15Z3ZZ (oscillating tracking), F15Z4ZZ (sinusoidal vertical axis rotational), F15Z5ZZ (dix-hallpike dynamic), F15Z6ZZ (computerized dynamic posturography) and 1 more.

With a different device, use F15Z28Z (vestibular / balance).

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.
