About 00PV4YZ
00PV4YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the spinal cord using a percutaneous endoscopic 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 other operations on spinal cord and spinal canal structures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (03.99).
For a different body part, codes include 00P04YZ (brain), 00P64YZ (cerebral ventricle), 00PE4YZ (cranial nerve) and 00PU4YZ (spinal canal).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 00PV0YZ (open) and 00PV3YZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 00PV40Z (drainage device), 00PV42Z (monitoring device), 00PV43Z (infusion device), 00PV47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 00PV4JZ (synthetic substitute), 00PV4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 1 more.
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
