About 0RGD4KZ
0RGD4KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fusion procedure on the left temporomandibular joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, fusion means joining together portions of an articular body part rendering the articular body part immobile.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other operations on facial bones and joints, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (76.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0RGC4KZ (right temporomandibular joint), 0RGE4KZ (right sternoclavicular joint), 0RGF4KZ (left sternoclavicular joint), 0RGG4KZ (right acromioclavicular joint), 0RGH4KZ (left acromioclavicular joint), 0RGJ4KZ (right shoulder joint) and 13 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RGD0KZ (open) and 0RGD3KZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0RGD44Z (internal fixation device), 0RGD47Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0RGD4JZ (synthetic substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 143 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 144 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures with CC), DRG 145 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures”, “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
