About 0LPY47Z

0LPY47Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the lower tendon using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other tenotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.13).

For a different body part, codes include 0LPX47Z (upper tendon).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LPY07Z (open) and 0LPY37Z (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0LPY40Z (drainage device), 0LPY4JZ (synthetic substitute), 0LPY4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0LPY4YZ (other device).

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 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Soft Tissue Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

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