About 0SHF08Z

0SHF08Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right ankle joint using an open approach with spacer. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to insertion or replacement of (cement) spacer, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (84.56).

For a different body part, codes include 0SH008Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SH208Z (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SH308Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SH408Z (lumbosacral disc), 0SH508Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SH608Z (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SHF38Z (percutaneous) and 0SHF48Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0SHF03Z (infusion device), 0SHF04Z (internal fixation device) and 0SHF05Z (external fixation device).

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.
