About 0NQV4ZZ
0NQV4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the left mandible using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Alveoloplasty, closed osteoplasty [osteotomy] of mandibular ramus, osteoplasty [osteotomy] of body of mandible and 1 more, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (24.5, 76.61, 76.63 and 1 more).
For a different body part, codes include 0NQ04ZZ (skull), 0NQ14ZZ (frontal bone), 0NQ34ZZ (right parietal bone), 0NQ44ZZ (left parietal bone), 0NQ54ZZ (right temporal bone), 0NQ64ZZ (left temporal bone) and 16 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0NQV0ZZ (open), 0NQV3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0NQVXZZ (external).
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 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
