About 0JWWXJZ

0JWWXJZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, lower extremity using an external 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 miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0JWSXJZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, head and neck), 0JWTXJZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, trunk) and 0JWVXJZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, upper extremity).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JWW0JZ (open) and 0JWW3JZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0JWWX0Z (drainage device), 0JWWX3Z (infusion device), 0JWWX7Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0JWWXHZ (contraceptive device), 0JWWXKZ (nonautologous tissue substitute), 0JWWXNZ (tissue expander) 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.
