0M9P40ZDrainage of Left Knee Bursa and Ligament with Drainage Device, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach

0M9P40Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the left knee bursa and ligament using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. 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, knee and aspiration of bursa, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (80.16 and 83.94).

For a different body part, codes include 0M9040Z (head and neck bursa and ligament), 0M9140Z (right shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M9240Z (left shoulder bursa and ligament), 0M9340Z (right elbow bursa and ligament), 0M9440Z (left elbow bursa and ligament), 0M9540Z (right wrist bursa and ligament) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0M9P00Z (open) and 0M9P30Z (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0M9P4ZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 400 (Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection), DRG 488 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection with CC/MCC), DRG 489 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection 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) and DRG 630 (Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection”, “Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection”, “Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures” and 1 more.

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