About 0SPK40Z
0SPK40Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the right tarsometatarsal joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with drainage device. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from 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 0SP040Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SP240Z (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SP340Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SP440Z (lumbosacral disc), 0SP540Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SP640Z (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SPK00Z (open), 0SPK30Z (percutaneous) and 0SPKX0Z (external).
With a different device, use 0SPK43Z (infusion device), 0SPK44Z (internal fixation device), 0SPK45Z (external fixation device), 0SPK47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SPK48Z (spacer), 0SPK4JZ (synthetic substitute) and 1 more.
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.
