About 0JPW0YZ
0JPW0YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a removal procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, lower extremity using an open approach with other device. 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 0JPS0YZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, head and neck), 0JPT0YZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, trunk) and 0JPV0YZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, upper extremity).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JPW3YZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0JPW00Z (drainage device), 0JPW01Z (radioactive element), 0JPW03Z (infusion device), 0JPW07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0JPW0HZ (contraceptive device), 0JPW0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 5 more.
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
