About 099F4ZZ
099F4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the right eustachian tube using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to operations on eustachian tube, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (20.8).
For a different body part, codes include 09904ZZ (right external ear), 09914ZZ (left external ear), 09934ZZ (right external auditory canal), 09944ZZ (left external auditory canal), 09974ZZ (right tympanic membrane), 09984ZZ (left tympanic membrane) and 16 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 099F0ZZ (open), 099F3ZZ (percutaneous), 099F7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 099F8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 099F40Z (drainage device).
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.
