About 0CQ63ZZ

0CQ63ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the lower gingiva using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on gum, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (24.39).

For a different body part, codes include 0CQ03ZZ (upper lip), 0CQ13ZZ (lower lip), 0CQ23ZZ (hard palate), 0CQ33ZZ (soft palate), 0CQ43ZZ (buccal mucosa), 0CQ53ZZ (upper gingiva) and 18 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CQ60ZZ (open) and 0CQ6XZZ (external).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
