About 0SGP05Z
0SGP05Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fusion procedure on the right toe phalangeal joint using an open approach with external 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 other fusion of foot, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.17).
For a different body part, codes include 0SG905Z (right hip joint), 0SGB05Z (left hip joint), 0SGC05Z (right knee joint), 0SGD05Z (left knee joint), 0SGF05Z (right ankle joint), 0SGG05Z (left ankle joint) and 7 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SGP35Z (percutaneous) and 0SGP45Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0SGP03Z (internal fixation device, sustained compression), 0SGP04Z (internal fixation device), 0SGP07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SGP0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0SGP0KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 503 (Foot Procedures with MCC), DRG 504 (Foot Procedures with CC) and DRG 505 (Foot Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Foot Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
