About 0LWY47Z
0LWY47Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the lower tendon using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous tissue 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 tenotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.13).
For a different body part, codes include 0LWX47Z (upper tendon).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LWY07Z (open), 0LWY37Z (percutaneous) and 0LWYX7Z (external).
With a different device, use 0LWY40Z (drainage device), 0LWY4JZ (synthetic substitute), 0LWY4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0LWY4YZ (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.
