About 0RP143Z

0RP143Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the cervical vertebral joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other arthrotomy, other specified sites, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.19).

For a different body part, codes include 0RP043Z (occipital-cervical joint), 0RP343Z (cervical vertebral disc), 0RP443Z (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RP543Z (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RP643Z (thoracic vertebral joint), 0RP943Z (thoracic vertebral disc) and 22 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RP103Z (open), 0RP133Z (percutaneous) and 0RP1X3Z (external).

With a different device, use 0RP140Z (drainage device), 0RP144Z (internal fixation device), 0RP147Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0RP148Z (spacer), 0RP14AZ (interbody fusion device), 0RP14JZ (synthetic substitute) and 1 more.

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for 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 category “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
