About 01HY3MZ
01HY3MZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the peripheral nerve using a percutaneous approach with neurostimulator lead. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to implantation or replacement of peripheral neurostimulator lead(s), the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (04.92).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 01HY0MZ (open) and 01HY4MZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 01HY31Z (radioactive element), 01HY32Z (monitoring device) and 01HY3YZ (other device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator), DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other Vascular Procedures” and 7 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
