ICD-10-PCS 09J Medical and Surgical: Ear, Nose, Sinus Inspection

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Inspection (code starting with 09J) refers to the visual and/or manual examination of body parts within the Ear, Nose, and Sinus system. This procedure is done to assess the condition of tissues or structures without making any physical changes.

Within the Medical and Surgical section, the 09J Inspection operation includes various specific codes that describe inspections of parts such as the Tympanic Membrane, Inner Ear, Nasal Mucosa and Soft Tissue, and Sinus. These inspections can be performed through multiple approaches depending on clinical needs, including the Open Approach (e.g., 09J70ZZ for right tympanic membrane), Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach (e.g., 09J74ZZ for right tympanic membrane), or via a Natural or Artificial Opening Endoscopic Approach (e.g., 09J88ZZ for left tympanic membrane). Approaches may also be External or Percutaneous. These detailed codes enable accurate documentation of the specific site and method of inspection in ear, nose, and sinus evaluations.
