About 0UCG0ZZ
0UCG0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a extirpation procedure on the vagina using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, extirpation means taking or cutting out solid matter from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other vaginotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (70.14).
For a different body part, codes include 0UC00ZZ (right ovary), 0UC10ZZ (left ovary), 0UC20ZZ (bilateral ovaries), 0UC40ZZ (uterine supporting structure), 0UC50ZZ (right fallopian tube), 0UC60ZZ (left fallopian tube) and 9 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0UCG3ZZ (percutaneous), 0UCG4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0UCG7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0UCG8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0UCGXZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 746 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 747 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
