About 0SGC47Z
0SGC47Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fusion procedure on the right knee joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with autologous tissue substitute. 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 arthrodesis of knee, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.22).
For a different body part, codes include 0SG547Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SG747Z (right sacroiliac joint), 0SG847Z (left sacroiliac joint), 0SG947Z (right hip joint), 0SGB47Z (left hip joint), 0SGD47Z (left knee joint) and 10 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SGC07Z (open) and 0SGC37Z (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0SGC43Z (internal fixation device, sustained compression), 0SGC44Z (internal fixation device), 0SGC45Z (external fixation device), 0SGC4JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0SGC4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 400 (Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection), DRG 488 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection with CC/MCC), DRG 489 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection 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 “Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection”, “Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
