About 0SP7X4Z

0SP7X4Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the right sacroiliac joint using an external approach with internal fixation device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to removal of other therapeutic device, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (97.89).

For a different body part, codes include 0SP0X4Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SP3X4Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SP5X4Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SP6X4Z (coccygeal joint), 0SP8X4Z (left sacroiliac joint), 0SP9X4Z (right hip joint) and 13 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SP704Z (open), 0SP734Z (percutaneous) and 0SP744Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0SP7X0Z (drainage device) and 0SP7X3Z (infusion 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.
