About 09JY8ZZ

09JY8ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the sinus using a via natural or artificial opening endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other nonoperative measurements and examinations, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (89.39).

For a different body part, codes include 09J78ZZ (right tympanic membrane), 09J88ZZ (left tympanic membrane), 09JD8ZZ (right inner ear), 09JE8ZZ (left inner ear), 09JH8ZZ (right ear), 09JJ8ZZ (left ear) and 1 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 09JY0ZZ (open), 09JY3ZZ (percutaneous), 09JY4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 09JYXZZ (external).

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.
