About 093K8ZZ
093K8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a control procedure on the nasal mucosa and soft tissue using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, control means stopping, or attempting to stop, postprocedural or other acute bleeding.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 093K7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening).
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 FY2019, effective October 1, 2018.
