About 0M990ZZ

0M990ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the right upper extremity bursa and ligament using an open 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 Bursotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.03).

For a different body part, codes include 0M900ZZ (head and neck bursa and ligament), 0M910ZZ (right shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M920ZZ (left shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M930ZZ (right elbow bursa and ligament), 0M940ZZ (left elbow bursa and ligament), 0M950ZZ (right wrist bursa and ligament) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0M993ZZ (percutaneous) and 0M994ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0M9900Z (drainage 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”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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