About 0RHG34Z
0RHG34Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right acromioclavicular joint using a percutaneous approach with internal fixation 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 arthrotomy, shoulder, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.11).
For a different body part, codes include 0RH034Z (occipital-cervical joint), 0RH134Z (cervical vertebral joint), 0RH434Z (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RH634Z (thoracic vertebral joint), 0RHA34Z (thoracolumbar vertebral joint), 0RHC34Z (right temporomandibular joint) and 18 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RHG04Z (open) and 0RHG44Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0RHG33Z (infusion device) and 0RHG38Z (spacer).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 507 (Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 508 (Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
