About 0JWV0JZ

0JWV0JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, upper extremity using an open approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of skin and subcutaneous tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (86.09).

For a different body part, codes include 0JWS0JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, head and neck), 0JWT0JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, trunk) and 0JWW0JZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, lower extremity).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JWV3JZ (percutaneous) and 0JWVXJZ (external).

With a different device, use 0JWV00Z (drainage device), 0JWV03Z (infusion device), 0JWV07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0JWV0HZ (contraceptive device), 0JWV0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute), 0JWV0NZ (tissue expander) and 4 more.

It is a non-O.R. procedure that is part of the MS-DRG logic for 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 category “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures”.

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