0J8T3ZZDivision of Trunk Subcutaneous Tissue and Fascia, Percutaneous Approach

0J8T3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a division procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, trunk using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, division means cutting into a body part, without draining fluids and/or gases from the body part, in order to separate or transect a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to Fasciotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.14).

For a different body part, codes include 0J803ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, scalp), 0J813ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, face), 0J843ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, right neck), 0J853ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, left neck), 0J863ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, chest), 0J873ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, back) and 19 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0J8T0ZZ (open).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator), DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 500 (Soft Tissue Procedures with MCC), DRG 501 (Soft Tissue Procedures with CC) and DRG 502 (Soft Tissue Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Soft Tissue Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and 2 more.

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