0Y6F0ZZDetachment at Right Knee Region, Open Approach

0Y6F0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a detachment procedure on the right knee region using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, detachment means cutting off all or a portion of the upper or lower extremities.

In plain terms, this corresponds to disarticulation of knee, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (84.16).

For a different body part, codes include 0Y620ZZ (right hindquarter), 0Y630ZZ (left hindquarter), 0Y640ZZ (bilateral hindquarter), 0Y670ZZ (right femoral region), 0Y680ZZ (left femoral region) and 0Y6G0ZZ (left knee region).

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 239 (Amputation for Circulatory System Disorders Except Upper Limb and Toe with MCC), DRG 240 (Amputation for Circulatory System Disorders Except Upper Limb and Toe with CC) and DRG 241 (Amputation for Circulatory System Disorders Except Upper Limb and Toe without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Amputation for Circulatory System Disorders Except Upper Limb and Toe”, “Hip or Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Periprosthetic Joint Infection” and 5 more.

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