About F00ZLKZ
F00ZLKZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a speech assessment procedure on the none using an augmentative/alternative communication system approach with audiovisual (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, speech assessment means measurement of speech and related functions.
In plain terms, this corresponds to functional evaluation, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (93.01).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded F00Z0KZ (filtered speech), F00Z1KZ (speech threshold), F00Z2KZ (speech/word recognition), F00Z3KZ (staggered spondaic word), F00Z5KZ (synthetic sentence identification), F00Z6KZ (speech and/or language screening) and 16 more.
With a different device, use F00ZLMZ (augmentative / alternative communication), F00ZLPZ (computer), F00ZLYZ (other equipment) and F00ZLZZ (none).
It is a non-O.R. procedure that is part of the MS-DRG logic for DRG 945 (Rehabilitation with CC/MCC) and DRG 946 (Rehabilitation without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Rehabilitation”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
