About 0SPF4KZ

0SPF4KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the right ankle joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from 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 0SP04KZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SP24KZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SP34KZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SP44KZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SP54KZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SP64KZ (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SPF0KZ (open) and 0SPF3KZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0SPF40Z (drainage device), 0SPF43Z (infusion device), 0SPF44Z (internal fixation device), 0SPF45Z (external fixation device), 0SPF47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SPF48Z (spacer) and 1 more.

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.
