About 0NUG4KZ

0NUG4KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left ethmoid bone using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to bone graft to facial bone, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (76.91).

For a different body part, codes include 0NU04KZ (skull), 0NU14KZ (frontal bone), 0NU34KZ (right parietal bone), 0NU44KZ (left parietal bone), 0NU54KZ (right temporal bone), 0NU64KZ (left temporal bone) and 16 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0NUG0KZ (open) and 0NUG3KZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0NUG47Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0NUG4JZ (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) and DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”.

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