About 0RBF4ZX
0RBF4ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the left sternoclavicular joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of joint structure, shoulder, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.31).
For a different body part, codes include 0RB04ZX (occipital-cervical joint), 0RB14ZX (cervical vertebral joint), 0RB34ZX (cervical vertebral disc), 0RB44ZX (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RB54ZX (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RB64ZX (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RBF0ZX (open) and 0RBF3ZX (percutaneous).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
