About 0P964ZX

0P964ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the left scapula using a percutaneous endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of bone, scapula, clavicle, and thorax [ribs and sternum], the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (77.41).

For a different body part, codes include 0P904ZX (sternum), 0P914ZX (ribs, 1 to 2), 0P924ZX (ribs, 3 or more), 0P934ZX (cervical vertebra), 0P944ZX (thoracic vertebra), 0P954ZX (right scapula) and 20 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0P960ZX (open) and 0P963ZX (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 166 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 167 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 168 (Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 477 (Biopsies of Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 478 (Biopsies of Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue with CC) and DRG 479 (Biopsies of Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Respiratory System O.R. Procedures”, “Biopsies of Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue”, “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and 4 more.

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