About 0JBK0ZZ

0JBK0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, left hand using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to excision of other lesion of soft tissue of hand, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (82.29).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JBK3ZZ (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 513 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 514 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), DRG 580 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with CC), DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 906 (Hand Procedures for Injuries), under the surgical categories “Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures”, “Hand Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
