About 0PRK3KZ
0PRK3KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the right ulna using a percutaneous approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to bone graft, radius and ulna, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (78.03).
For a different body part, codes include 0PR03KZ (sternum), 0PR13KZ (ribs, 1 to 2), 0PR23KZ (ribs, 3 or more), 0PR33KZ (cervical vertebra), 0PR43KZ (thoracic vertebra), 0PR53KZ (right scapula) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0PRK0KZ (open) and 0PRK4KZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0PRK37Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0PRK3JZ (synthetic substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 510 (Shoulder, Elbow or Forearm Procedures, Except Major Joint Procedures with MCC), DRG 511 (Shoulder, Elbow or Forearm Procedures, Except Major Joint Procedures with CC), DRG 512 (Shoulder, Elbow or Forearm Procedures, Except Major Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Shoulder, Elbow or Forearm Procedures, Except Major Joint Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
