About 0W0N37Z
0W0N37Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a alteration procedure on the perineum, female using a percutaneous approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, alteration means modifying the anatomic structure of a body part without affecting the function of the body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of vulva and perineum, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (71.79).
For a different body part, codes include 0W0037Z (head), 0W0237Z (face), 0W0437Z (upper jaw), 0W0537Z (lower jaw), 0W0637Z (neck), 0W0837Z (chest wall) and 4 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0W0N07Z (open) and 0W0N47Z (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0W0N3JZ (synthetic substitute), 0W0N3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0W0N3ZZ (no device).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 746 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 747 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Vagina, Cervix and Vulva 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.
