About 0V9TX0Z

0V9TX0Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the prepuce using an external approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of penis, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (64.92).

For a different body part, codes include 0V95X0Z (scrotum) and 0V9SX0Z (penis).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0V9T00Z (open), 0V9T30Z (percutaneous) and 0V9T40Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0V9TXZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 709 (Penis Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 710 (Penis Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Penis Procedures”.

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