About 0JPT0XZ
0JPT0XZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, trunk using an open approach with vascular access device, tunneled. In ICD-10-PCS, removal means taking out or off a device from a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to incision with removal of foreign body or device from skin and subcutaneous tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (86.05).
For a different body part, codes include 0JPV0XZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, upper extremity) and 0JPW0XZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, lower extremity).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JPT3XZ (percutaneous) and 0JPTXXZ (external).
With a different device, use 0JPT00Z (drainage device), 0JPT01Z (radioactive element), 0JPT02Z (monitoring device), 0JPT03Z (infusion device), 0JPT07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0JPT0FZ (subcutaneous defibrillator lead) and 9 more.
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.
