About 0VP43YZ

0VP43YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the prostate and seminal vesicles using a percutaneous approach with other device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of prostate and incision of seminal vesicle, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (60.0 and 60.72).

For a different body part, codes include 0VP83YZ (scrotum and tunica vaginalis), 0VPD3YZ (testis), 0VPM3YZ (epididymis and spermatic cord), 0VPR3YZ (vas deferens) and 0VPS3YZ (penis).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0VP40YZ (open), 0VP44YZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0VP47YZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0VP48YZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0VP430Z (drainage device), 0VP431Z (radioactive element), 0VP433Z (infusion device), 0VP437Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0VP43JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0VP43KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

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.
