About 0RH643Z
0RH643Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the thoracic vertebral joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0RH043Z (occipital-cervical joint), 0RH143Z (cervical vertebral joint), 0RH343Z (cervical vertebral disc), 0RH443Z (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RH543Z (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RH943Z (thoracic vertebral disc) and 22 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RH603Z (open) and 0RH633Z (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0RH644Z (internal fixation device), 0RH648Z (spacer), 0RH64BZ (spinal stabilization device, interspinous process), 0RH64CZ (spinal stabilization device, pedicle-based) and 0RH64DZ (spinal stabilization device, facet replacement).
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.
