About 0QSNXZ2

0QSNXZ2 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the right metatarsal using an external approach (qualifier: sesamoid bone(s) 1st toe). 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 without internal fixation, tarsals and metatarsals, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (79.07).

For a different body part, codes include 0QSPXZ2 (left metatarsal).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0QSN0Z2 (open), 0QSN3Z2 (percutaneous) and 0QSN4Z2 (percutaneous endoscopic).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
