About 0XXN0ZL
0XXN0ZL is the ICD-10-PCS code for a transfer procedure on the right index finger using an open approach (qualifier: right thumb). In ICD-10-PCS, transfer means moving, without taking out, all or a portion of a body part to another location to take over the function of all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Pollicization operation carrying over nerves and blood supply, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (82.61).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 040 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with MCC), DRG 041 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures with CC or Peripheral Neurostimulator), DRG 042 (Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 506 (Major Thumb or Joint Procedures), DRG 906 (Hand Procedures for Injuries) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Major Thumb or Joint Procedures”, “Hand Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
