About 0JH73CZ

0JH73CZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, back using a percutaneous approach with stimulator generator, single array rechargeable. In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to insertion or replacement of single array rechargeable neurostimulator pulse generator, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (86.97).

For a different body part, codes include 0JH63CZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, chest) and 0JH83CZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, abdomen).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JH70CZ (open).

With a different device, use 0JH73BZ (stimulator generator, single array), 0JH73DZ (stimulator generator, multiple array), 0JH73EZ (stimulator generator, multiple array rechargeable), 0JH73MZ (stimulator generator), 0JH73NZ (tissue expander), 0JH73VZ (infusion device, pump) and 1 more.

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 252 (Other Vascular Procedures with MCC), DRG 253 (Other Vascular Procedures with CC) and DRG 254 (Other Vascular Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Other Vascular Procedures”, “Spinal Procedures” and 1 more.

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