About 00WE4YZ
00WE4YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the cranial nerve using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of cranial and peripheral nerves, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (04.04).
For a different body part, codes include 00W04YZ (brain), 00W64YZ (cerebral ventricle), 00WU4YZ (spinal canal) and 00WV4YZ (spinal cord).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 00WE0YZ (open) and 00WE3YZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 00WE40Z (drainage device), 00WE42Z (monitoring device), 00WE43Z (infusion device), 00WE47Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 00WE4MZ (neurostimulator lead).
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.
