About 0SSC34Z
0SSC34Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the right knee joint using a percutaneous approach with internal fixation device. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to closed reduction of dislocation of knee, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (79.76).
For a different body part, codes include 0SS034Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SS334Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SS534Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SS634Z (coccygeal joint), 0SS734Z (right sacroiliac joint), 0SS834Z (left sacroiliac joint) and 13 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SSC04Z (open), 0SSC44Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0SSCX4Z (external).
With a different device, use 0SSC35Z (external fixation device) and 0SSC3ZZ (no 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.
