About 0SWK05Z
0SWK05Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the right tarsometatarsal joint using an open approach with external 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, foot and toe, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.18).
For a different body part, codes include 0SW905Z (right hip joint), 0SWB05Z (left hip joint), 0SWC05Z (right knee joint), 0SWD05Z (left knee joint), 0SWF05Z (right ankle joint), 0SWG05Z (left ankle joint) and 7 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SWK35Z (percutaneous), 0SWK45Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0SWKX5Z (external).
With a different device, use 0SWK00Z (drainage device), 0SWK03Z (infusion device), 0SWK04Z (internal fixation device), 0SWK07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0SWK08Z (spacer), 0SWK0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 1 more.
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 503 (Foot Procedures with MCC), DRG 504 (Foot Procedures with CC), DRG 505 (Foot 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 “Foot Procedures” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
