About 0RPS3KZ
0RPS3KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the right carpometacarpal joint using a percutaneous approach with nonautologous 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, hand and finger, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.14).
For a different body part, codes include 0RP03KZ (occipital-cervical joint), 0RP13KZ (cervical vertebral joint), 0RP33KZ (cervical vertebral disc), 0RP43KZ (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RP53KZ (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RP63KZ (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RPS0KZ (open) and 0RPS4KZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0RPS30Z (drainage device), 0RPS33Z (infusion device), 0RPS34Z (internal fixation device), 0RPS35Z (external fixation device), 0RPS37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0RPS38Z (spacer) and 1 more.
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 506 (Major Thumb or Joint Procedures) and DRG 906 (Hand Procedures for Injuries), under the surgical categories “Major Thumb or Joint Procedures” and “Hand Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
