- Factors influencing health status and contact with health services (Z00-Z99)
- Z30-Z39: Persons encountering health services in circumstances related to reproduction
In simple words: This code is used when a doctor takes out and puts back in an IUD during one visit.
This ICD-10-CM code signifies a patient encounter specifically for the removal and subsequent reinsertion of an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD).This code is used when both procedures are performed during the same encounter. It's crucial to note that a corresponding procedure code (CPT or HCPCS) should accompany this Z code, reflecting the actual procedures done.
Example 1: A patient presents for a routine IUD check.During the examination, the physician notes the IUD is dislodged and requires repositioning. The physician removes the IUD and reinserts it during the same visit., A patient requests IUD removal due to unwanted side effects. After removal, the patient decides to have a new IUD inserted immediately., A patient experiences heavy bleeding and cramping.Upon examination, the physician finds the IUD is partially dislodged and performs both removal and reinsertion during a single visit.
* Patient's medical history including prior pregnancies, contraceptive use, and any relevant medical conditions.* Documentation of the reason for removal and reinsertion of the IUD.* Detailed description of the procedure including the type of IUD used.* Any complications encountered during the procedure.* Post-procedure instructions and follow-up plan.
** This code should only be used when both removal and reinsertion occur during the same encounter.If only removal or only insertion is performed, the appropriate code for that single procedure should be used. Always verify the code's validity with your payer's guidelines.
