About 0NRB0KZ

0NRB0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the nasal bone using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to total nasal reconstruction, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (21.83).

For a different body part, codes include 0NR00KZ (skull), 0NR10KZ (frontal bone), 0NR30KZ (right parietal bone), 0NR40KZ (left parietal bone), 0NR50KZ (right temporal bone), 0NR60KZ (left temporal bone) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0NRB3KZ (percutaneous) and 0NRB4KZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0NRB07Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0NRB0JZ (synthetic substitute).

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 Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and 2 more.

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