About 0WPN37Z

0WPN37Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the perineum, female using a percutaneous approach with autologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of vulva and perineum, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (71.09).

For a different body part, codes include 0WP037Z (head), 0WP237Z (face), 0WP437Z (upper jaw), 0WP537Z (lower jaw), 0WP637Z (neck), 0WP837Z (chest wall) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WPN07Z (open), 0WPN47Z (percutaneous endoscopic) and 0WPNX7Z (external).

With a different device, use 0WPN30Z (drainage device), 0WPN31Z (radioactive element), 0WPN33Z (infusion device), 0WPN3JZ (synthetic substitute), 0WPN3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 0WPN3YZ (other device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), DRG 580 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with CC), DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 746 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures with CC/MCC) and DRG 747 (Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures” and “Vagina, Cervix and Vulva Procedures”.

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