About 0RWM43Z
0RWM43Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the left elbow joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with infusion device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other arthrotomy, elbow, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.12).
For a different body part, codes include 0RW043Z (occipital-cervical joint), 0RW143Z (cervical vertebral joint), 0RW343Z (cervical vertebral disc), 0RW443Z (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RW543Z (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RW643Z (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RWM03Z (open), 0RWM33Z (percutaneous) and 0RWMX3Z (external).
With a different device, use 0RWM40Z (drainage device), 0RWM44Z (internal fixation device), 0RWM45Z (external fixation device), 0RWM47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0RWM48Z (spacer), 0RWM4JZ (synthetic substitute) and 1 more.
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 507 (Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 508 (Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Major Shoulder or Elbow Joint Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
