About 0RPD0JZ
0RPD0JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the left temporomandibular joint using an open approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of facial bone, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (76.09).
For a different body part, codes include 0RP00JZ (occipital-cervical joint), 0RP10JZ (cervical vertebral joint), 0RP30JZ (cervical vertebral disc), 0RP40JZ (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RP50JZ (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RP60JZ (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RPD3JZ (percutaneous) and 0RPD4JZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0RPD00Z (drainage device), 0RPD03Z (infusion device), 0RPD04Z (internal fixation device), 0RPD07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0RPD08Z (spacer) and 0RPD0KZ (nonautologous tissue 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 495 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with MCC), DRG 496 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur with CC) and DRG 497 (Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat O.R. Procedures” and “Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices Except Hip and Femur”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
