About 0KRC07Z
0KRC07Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the right hand muscle using an open approach with autologous tissue 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 plastic operation on hand with graft of muscle or fascia, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (82.72).
For a different body part, codes include 0KR007Z (head muscle), 0KR107Z (facial muscle), 0KR207Z (right neck muscle), 0KR307Z (left neck muscle), 0KR407Z (tongue, palate, pharynx muscle), 0KR507Z (right shoulder muscle) and 21 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0KRC47Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0KRC0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0KRC0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 513 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 514 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 906 (Hand Procedures for Injuries), DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), DRG 958 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with CC) and DRG 959 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures”, “Hand Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
