About 0CRX070
0CRX070 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the lower tooth using an open approach with autologous tissue substitute (qualifier: single). In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other dental restoration, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (23.49).
For a different body part, codes include 0CRW070 (upper tooth).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0CRXX70 (external).
With a different device, use 0CRX0J0 (synthetic substitute) and 0CRX0K0 (nonautologous tissue substitute).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
