About 0M934ZZ
0M934ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the right elbow bursa and ligament using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other arthrotomy, elbow and aspiration of bursa, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (80.12 and 83.94).
For a different body part, codes include 0M904ZZ (head and neck bursa and ligament), 0M914ZZ (right shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M924ZZ (left shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M944ZZ (left elbow bursa and ligament), 0M954ZZ (right wrist bursa and ligament), 0M964ZZ (left wrist bursa and ligament) and 21 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0M930ZZ (open) and 0M933ZZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0M9340Z (drainage device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 507 (Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 508 (Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 628 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 629 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 630 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC) and DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
