About 0HPRXKZ
0HPRXKZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the toe nail using an external approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other therapeutic device, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.89).
For a different body part, codes include 0HPPXKZ (skin), 0HPQXKZ (finger nail) and 0HPSXKZ (hair).
With a different device, use 0HPRX0Z (drainage device), 0HPRX7Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0HPRXJZ (synthetic substitute).
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.
