About 0RUT3JZ

0RUT3JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left carpometacarpal joint using a percutaneous approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to arthroplasty of carpocarpal or carpometacarpal joint with implant, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.74).

For a different body part, codes include 0RU03JZ (occipital-cervical joint), 0RU13JZ (cervical vertebral joint), 0RU33JZ (cervical vertebral disc), 0RU43JZ (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RU53JZ (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RU63JZ (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RUT0JZ (open) and 0RUT4JZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0RUT37Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0RUT3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator), DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 506 (Major Thumb or Joint Procedures), DRG 906 (Hand Procedures for Injuries) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Major Thumb or Joint Procedures”, “Hand Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
