About 0LWX4YZ

0LWX4YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the upper tendon using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with other device. 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 tenotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.13).

For a different body part, codes include 0LWY4YZ (lower tendon).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LWX0YZ (open) and 0LWX3YZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0LWX40Z (drainage device), 0LWX47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0LWX4JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0LWX4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
