About 0PTH0ZZ
0PTH0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a resection procedure on the right radius using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, resection means cutting out or off, without replacement, all of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to total ostectomy, radius and ulna, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (77.93).
For a different body part, codes include 0PT00ZZ (sternum), 0PT10ZZ (ribs, 1 to 2), 0PT20ZZ (ribs, 3 or more), 0PT50ZZ (right scapula), 0PT60ZZ (left scapula), 0PT70ZZ (right glenoid cavity) and 18 more.
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.
