About 0SUG37Z

0SUG37Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the left ankle joint using a percutaneous approach with autologous 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 0SU037Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SU237Z (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SU337Z (lumbosacral joint), 0SU437Z (lumbosacral disc), 0SU537Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SU637Z (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SUG07Z (open) and 0SUG47Z (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0SUG3JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0SUG3KZ (nonautologous tissue 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.
