About 0PSK44Z

0PSK44Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the right ulna using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with internal fixation device. 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 closed reduction of fracture with internal fixation, radius and ulna, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (79.12).

For a different body part, codes include 0PS044Z (sternum), 0PS144Z (ribs, 1 to 2), 0PS244Z (ribs, 3 or more), 0PS344Z (cervical vertebra), 0PS444Z (thoracic vertebra), 0PS544Z (right scapula) and 20 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0PSK04Z (open) and 0PSK34Z (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0PSK45Z (external fixation device), 0PSK46Z (internal fixation device, intramedullary), 0PSK4BZ (external fixation device, monoplanar), 0PSK4CZ (external fixation device, ring), 0PSK4DZ (external fixation device, hybrid) and 0PSK4ZZ (no device).

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.
