About 0QSP352

0QSP352 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the left metatarsal using a percutaneous approach with external fixation device (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 application of external fixator device, tarsals and metatarsals and closed reduction of fracture without internal fixation, tarsals and metatarsals, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (78.18 and 79.07).

For a different body part, codes include 0QSN352 (right metatarsal).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0QSP052 (open) and 0QSP452 (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0QSP342 (internal fixation device) and 0QSP3Z2 (no 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), DRG 505 (Foot 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 “Foot Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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