About 0P9C40Z
0P9C40Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the right humeral head using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, drainage means taking or letting out fluids and/or gases from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of bone without division, humerus, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (77.12).
For a different body part, codes include 0P9040Z (sternum), 0P9140Z (ribs, 1 to 2), 0P9240Z (ribs, 3 or more), 0P9340Z (cervical vertebra), 0P9440Z (thoracic vertebra), 0P9540Z (right scapula) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0P9C00Z (open) and 0P9C30Z (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0P9C4ZZ (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 495 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with MCC), DRG 496 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with CC) and DRG 497 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
