About 0QP147Z

0QP147Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the sacrum using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of implanted devices from bone, other bones, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (78.69).

For a different body part, codes include 0QP047Z (lumbar vertebra), 0QP247Z (right pelvic bone), 0QP347Z (left pelvic bone), 0QP447Z (right acetabulum), 0QP547Z (left acetabulum), 0QP647Z (right upper femur) and 18 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0QP107Z (open) and 0QP137Z (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0QP144Z (internal fixation device), 0QP145Z (external fixation device), 0QP14JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0QP14KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 495 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with MCC), DRG 496 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with CC), DRG 497 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur 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 “Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
