About 0SW304Z

0SW304Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the lumbosacral joint using an open approach with internal fixation device. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other arthrotomy, other specified sites, revision of interspinous process device(s) and revision of pedicle-based dynamic stabilization device(s), the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (80.19, 84.81 and 84.83).

For a different body part, codes include 0SW004Z (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SW504Z (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SW604Z (coccygeal joint), 0SW704Z (right sacroiliac joint), 0SW804Z (left sacroiliac joint), 0SW904Z (right hip joint) and 13 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SW334Z (percutaneous), 0SW344Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0SW3X4Z (external).

With a different device, use 0SW300Z (drainage device), 0SW303Z (infusion device), 0SW307Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SW308Z (spacer), 0SW30AZ (interbody fusion device), 0SW30JZ (synthetic substitute) and 1 more.

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), DRG 517 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. 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 “Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue O.R. Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
