About 0HWU0KZ
0HWU0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left breast using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Mastotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (85.0).
For a different body part, codes include 0HWT0KZ (right breast).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0HWU3KZ (percutaneous), 0HWU7KZ (via natural or artificial opening) and 0HWU8KZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0HWU00Z (drainage device), 0HWU07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0HWU0JZ (synthetic substitute), 0HWU0NZ (tissue expander) and 0HWU0YZ (other device).
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.
