About 0HR9X74

0HR9X74 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the skin, perineum using an external approach with autologous tissue substitute (qualifier: partial thickness). In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of vulva and perineum, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (71.79).

For a different body part, codes include 0HR0X74 (skin, scalp), 0HR1X74 (skin, face), 0HR2X74 (skin, right ear), 0HR3X74 (skin, left ear), 0HR4X74 (skin, neck), 0HR5X74 (skin, chest) and 16 more.

With a different device, use 0HR9XJ4 (synthetic substitute) and 0HR9XK4 (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 746 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 747 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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