About 0SUD3KZ
0SUD3KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left knee joint using a percutaneous approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of joint, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.96).
For a different body part, codes include 0SU03KZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SU23KZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SU33KZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SU43KZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SU53KZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SU63KZ (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SUD0KZ (open) and 0SUD4KZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0SUD37Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0SUD3JZ (synthetic substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 515 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with MCC), DRG 516 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures with CC) and DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
