About 0SSG44Z
0SSG44Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the left ankle joint using a percutaneous endoscopic 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 ankle, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (79.77).
For a different body part, codes include 0SS044Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SS344Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SS544Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SS644Z (coccygeal joint), 0SS744Z (right sacroiliac joint), 0SS844Z (left sacroiliac joint) and 13 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SSG04Z (open), 0SSG34Z (percutaneous) and 0SSGX4Z (external).
With a different device, use 0SSG45Z (external fixation device) and 0SSG4ZZ (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.
