About 0SHM05Z

0SHM05Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the right metatarsal-phalangeal joint using an open approach with external 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, foot and toe, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.18).

For a different body part, codes include 0SH905Z (right hip joint), 0SHB05Z (left hip joint), 0SHC05Z (right knee joint), 0SHD05Z (left knee joint), 0SHF05Z (right ankle joint), 0SHG05Z (left ankle joint) and 7 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SHM35Z (percutaneous) and 0SHM45Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0SHM03Z (infusion device), 0SHM04Z (internal fixation device) and 0SHM08Z (spacer).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 503 (Foot Procedures with MCC), DRG 504 (Foot Procedures with CC), DRG 505 (Foot Procedures 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 “Foot Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.

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