About 0SHF34Z

0SHF34Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right ankle joint using a percutaneous approach with internal fixation device. 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 other arthrotomy, ankle, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.17).

For a different body part, codes include 0SH034Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SH334Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SH534Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SH634Z (coccygeal joint), 0SH734Z (right sacroiliac joint), 0SH834Z (left sacroiliac joint) and 13 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SHF04Z (open) and 0SHF44Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0SHF33Z (infusion device), 0SHF35Z (external fixation device) and 0SHF38Z (spacer).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 492 (Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur with MCC or Insertion of Antibiotic-eluting Bone Void Filler), DRG 493 (Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur with CC), DRG 494 (Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur 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 “Lower Extremity and Humerus Procedures Except Hip, Foot and Femur”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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