About 0YUA0KZ
0YUA0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the bilateral inguinal region using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to bilateral inguinal hernia repair with graft or prosthesis, not otherwise specified, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (53.17).
For a different body part, codes include 0YU00KZ (right buttock), 0YU10KZ (left buttock), 0YU50KZ (right inguinal region), 0YU60KZ (left inguinal region), 0YU70KZ (right femoral region), 0YU80KZ (left femoral region) and 23 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0YUA4KZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0YUA07Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0YUA0JZ (synthetic substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 350 (Inguinal and Femoral Hernia Procedures with MCC), DRG 351 (Inguinal and Femoral Hernia Procedures with CC) and DRG 352 (Inguinal and Femoral Hernia Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Hernia Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
