0SG704ZFusion of Right Sacroiliac Joint with Internal Fixation Device, Open Approach

0SG704Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fusion procedure on the right sacroiliac joint using an open approach with internal fixation device. In ICD-10-PCS, fusion means joining together portions of an articular body part rendering the articular body part immobile.

In plain terms, this corresponds to lumbar and lumbosacral fusion of the anterior column, posterior technique, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.08).

For a different body part, codes include 0SG504Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SG804Z (left sacroiliac joint), 0SG904Z (right hip joint), 0SGB04Z (left hip joint), 0SGC04Z (right knee joint), 0SGD04Z (left knee joint) and 10 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SG734Z (percutaneous) and 0SG744Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0SG707Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SG70JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0SG70KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 028 (Spinal Procedures with MCC), DRG 029 (Spinal Procedures with CC or Spinal Neurostimulators), DRG 030 (Spinal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 402 (Single Level Combined Anterior and Posterior Spinal Fusion Except Cervical), DRG 426 (Multiple Level Combined Anterior and Posterior Spinal Fusion Except Cervical with MCC) and DRG 427 (Multiple Level Combined Anterior and Posterior Spinal Fusion Except Cervical with CC), under the surgical categories “Spinal Procedures”, “Single Level Combined Anterior and Posterior Spinal Fusion Except Cervical”, “Multiple Level Combined Anterior and Posterior Spinal Fusion Except Cervical” and 5 more.

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