About 0JRF0JZ

0JRF0JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, left upper arm using an open approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to graft of muscle or fascia, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.82).

For a different body part, codes include 0JR00JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, scalp), 0JR10JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, face), 0JR40JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, right neck), 0JR50JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, left neck), 0JR60JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, chest), 0JR70JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, back) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JRF3JZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0JRF07Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0JRF0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 500 (Soft Tissue Procedures with MCC), DRG 501 (Soft Tissue Procedures with CC), DRG 502 (Soft Tissue 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) and DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Soft Tissue Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

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