About 0RPL30Z
0RPL30Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the right elbow joint using a percutaneous approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other therapeutic device, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.89).
For a different body part, codes include 0RP030Z (occipital-cervical joint), 0RP130Z (cervical vertebral joint), 0RP330Z (cervical vertebral disc), 0RP430Z (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RP530Z (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RP630Z (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RPL00Z (open), 0RPL40Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0RPLX0Z (external).
With a different device, use 0RPL33Z (infusion device), 0RPL34Z (internal fixation device), 0RPL35Z (external fixation device), 0RPL37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0RPL38Z (spacer), 0RPL3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 1 more.
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.
