About 0JBQ0ZX

0JBQ0ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, right foot using an open approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other diagnostic procedures on skin and subcutaneous tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (86.19).

For a different body part, codes include 0JB00ZX (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, scalp), 0JB10ZX (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, face), 0JB40ZX (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, right neck), 0JB50ZX (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, left neck), 0JB60ZX (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, chest), 0JB70ZX (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, back) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JBQ3ZX (percutaneous).

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.
