ICD-10-PCS 10H Obstetrics: Pregnancy Insertion

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Insertion (character H) refers to putting in a device or instrument into a body part. In the Obstetrics section, this operation specifically involves placing devices into the products of conception during pregnancy.

Within this classification, the Insertion procedure is coded based on the device used and the approach of placement. For example, the code 10H003Z represents the Insertion of a Monitoring Electrode into Products of Conception via an Open Approach, while 10H073Z describes the same device inserted Via Natural or Artificial Opening. Similarly, codes like 10H00YZ and 10H07YZ indicate the insertion of other unspecified devices by open or natural/artificial opening approaches respectively. These codes enable precise documentation of device insertion procedures during pregnancy, ensuring accurate medical records and billing in obstetric care.
