0LU707ZSupplement Right Hand Tendon with Autologous Tissue Substitute, Open Approach

0LU707Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the right hand tendon using an open approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to plastic operation on hand with other graft or implant, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (82.79).

For a different body part, codes include 0LU007Z (head and neck tendon), 0LU107Z (right shoulder tendon), 0LU207Z (left shoulder tendon), 0LU307Z (right upper arm tendon), 0LU407Z (left upper arm tendon), 0LU507Z (right lower arm and wrist tendon) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LU747Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0LU70JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0LU70KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator), DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), 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) and DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and 2 more.

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