About 0NWB37Z
0NWB37Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the nasal bone using a percutaneous approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
In plain terms, this corresponds to incision of nose, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (21.1).
For a different body part, codes include 0NW037Z (skull) and 0NWW37Z (facial bone).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0NWB07Z (open), 0NWB47Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0NWBX7Z (external).
With a different device, use 0NWB30Z (drainage device), 0NWB34Z (internal fixation device), 0NWB35Z (external fixation device), 0NWB3JZ (synthetic substitute), 0NWB3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0NWB3MZ (bone growth stimulator).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
