About 0SBK0ZX
0SBK0ZX is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the right tarsometatarsal joint using an open approach (qualifier: diagnostic). In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to biopsy of joint structure, foot and toe, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.38).
For a different body part, codes include 0SB00ZX (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SB20ZX (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SB30ZX (lumbosacral joint), 0SB40ZX (lumbosacral disc), 0SB50ZX (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SB60ZX (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SBK3ZX (percutaneous) and 0SBK4ZX (percutaneous endoscopic).
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.
