About 0NPW07Z

0NPW07Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the facial bone using an open approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of facial bone, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (76.09).

For a different body part, codes include 0NP007Z (skull) and 0NPB07Z (nasal bone).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0NPW37Z (percutaneous) and 0NPW47Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0NPW00Z (drainage device), 0NPW04Z (internal fixation device), 0NPW05Z (external fixation device), 0NPW0JZ (synthetic substitute), 0NPW0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0NPW0MZ (bone growth stimulator).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 495 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with MCC), DRG 496 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with CC) and DRG 497 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures” and “Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur”.

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