About 0JQL3ZZ

0JQL3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, right upper leg using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other suture of muscle or fascia, other plastic operations on fascia and closure of skin and subcutaneous tissue of other sites, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (83.65, 83.89 and 86.59).

For a different body part, codes include 0JQ03ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, scalp), 0JQ13ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, face), 0JQ43ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, right neck), 0JQ53ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, left neck), 0JQ63ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, chest), 0JQ73ZZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, back) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JQL0ZZ (open).

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.
