About 0SWFXJZ
0SWFXJZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the right ankle joint using an external approach with synthetic substitute. 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 miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).
For a different body part, codes include 0SW0XJZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SW2XJZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SW3XJZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SW4XJZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SW5XJZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SW6XJZ (coccygeal joint) and 23 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SWF0JZ (open), 0SWF3JZ (percutaneous) and 0SWF4JZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0SWFX0Z (drainage device), 0SWFX3Z (infusion device), 0SWFX4Z (internal fixation device), 0SWFX5Z (external fixation device), 0SWFX7Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SWFX8Z (spacer) and 1 more.
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.
