About 0Q9M4ZZ
0Q9M4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a drainage procedure on the left tarsal using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. 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, tarsals and metatarsals, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (77.18).
For a different body part, codes include 0Q904ZZ (lumbar vertebra), 0Q914ZZ (sacrum), 0Q924ZZ (right pelvic bone), 0Q934ZZ (left pelvic bone), 0Q944ZZ (right acetabulum), 0Q954ZZ (left acetabulum) and 18 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0Q9M0ZZ (open) and 0Q9M3ZZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0Q9M40Z (drainage device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 503 (Foot Procedures with MCC), DRG 504 (Foot Procedures with CC) and DRG 505 (Foot Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Foot Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
