About 0PS10ZZ
0PS10ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the ribs, 1 to 2 using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to open reduction of fracture without internal fixation, other specified bone, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (79.29).
For a different body part, codes include 0PS00ZZ (sternum), 0PS20ZZ (ribs, 3 or more), 0PS30ZZ (cervical vertebra), 0PS40ZZ (thoracic vertebra), 0PS50ZZ (right scapula), 0PS60ZZ (left scapula) and 20 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0PS13ZZ (percutaneous), 0PS14ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0PS1XZZ (external).
With a different device, use 0PS104Z (internal fixation device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 163 (Major Chest Procedures with MCC), DRG 164 (Major Chest Procedures with CC), DRG 165 (Major Chest Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Chest Procedures”, “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
