About 0RPB07Z

0RPB07Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the thoracolumbar vertebral disc using an open approach with autologous tissue substitute. 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 0RP007Z (occipital-cervical joint), 0RP107Z (cervical vertebral joint), 0RP307Z (cervical vertebral disc), 0RP407Z (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RP507Z (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RP607Z (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RPB37Z (percutaneous) and 0RPB47Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0RPB00Z (drainage device), 0RPB03Z (infusion device), 0RPB0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0RPB0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

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.
