0KHY0YZInsertion of Other Device into Lower Muscle, Open Approach

0KHY0YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the lower muscle using an open approach with other device. 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 myotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.02).

For a different body part, codes include 0KHX0YZ (upper muscle).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0KHY3YZ (percutaneous) and 0KHY4YZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0KHY0MZ (stimulator lead).

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 500 (Soft Tissue Procedures with MCC), DRG 501 (Soft Tissue Procedures with CC) and DRG 502 (Soft Tissue Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Soft Tissue Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
