About 0RSL35Z
0RSL35Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the right elbow joint using a percutaneous approach with external fixation device. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to closed reduction of dislocation of elbow, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (79.72).
For a different body part, codes include 0RSM35Z (left elbow joint), 0RSN35Z (right wrist joint), 0RSP35Z (left wrist joint), 0RSQ35Z (right carpal joint), 0RSR35Z (left carpal joint), 0RSS35Z (right carpometacarpal joint) and 5 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RSL05Z (open), 0RSL45Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0RSLX5Z (external).
With a different device, use 0RSL34Z (internal fixation device) and 0RSL3ZZ (no device).
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.
