About 0NWW0KZ

0NWW0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the facial bone using an open approach with nonautologous 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 other incision of facial bone, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (76.09).

For a different body part, codes include 0NW00KZ (skull) and 0NWB0KZ (nasal bone).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0NWW3KZ (percutaneous), 0NWW4KZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0NWWXKZ (external).

With a different device, use 0NWW00Z (drainage device), 0NWW04Z (internal fixation device), 0NWW05Z (external fixation device), 0NWW07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0NWW0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0NWW0MZ (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) 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.
