About 0CRV07Z

0CRV07Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the left vocal cord using an open approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of larynx, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (31.69).

For a different body part, codes include 0CR007Z (upper lip), 0CR107Z (lower lip), 0CR207Z (hard palate), 0CR307Z (soft palate), 0CR407Z (buccal mucosa), 0CR507Z (upper gingiva) and 9 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CRV77Z (via natural or artificial opening) and 0CRV87Z (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0CRV0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0CRV0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for 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), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 166 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 167 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 168 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
