About 0JWVXNZ
0JWVXNZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, upper extremity using an external approach with tissue expander. 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 miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0JWSXNZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, head and neck), 0JWTXNZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, trunk) and 0JWWXNZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, lower extremity).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JWV0NZ (open) and 0JWV3NZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0JWVX0Z (drainage device), 0JWVX3Z (infusion device), 0JWVX7Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0JWVXHZ (contraceptive device), 0JWVXJZ (synthetic substitute), 0JWVXKZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 3 more.
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.
