About 0M993ZZ
0M993ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the right upper extremity bursa and ligament using a percutaneous 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 aspiration of bursa, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.94).
For a different body part, codes include 0M903ZZ (head and neck bursa and ligament), 0M913ZZ (right shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M923ZZ (left shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M933ZZ (right elbow bursa and ligament), 0M943ZZ (left elbow bursa and ligament), 0M953ZZ (right wrist bursa and ligament) and 21 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0M990ZZ (open) and 0M994ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0M9930Z (drainage device).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
