About 0JWW3XZ

0JWW3XZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, lower extremity using a percutaneous approach with vascular access device, tunneled. In ICD-10-PCS, revision means correcting, to the extent possible, a portion of a malfunctioning device or the position of a displaced device.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other incision of skin and subcutaneous tissue, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (86.09).

For a different body part, codes include 0JWT3XZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, trunk) and 0JWV3XZ (subcutaneous tissue and fascia, upper extremity).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0JWW0XZ (open) and 0JWWXXZ (external).

With a different device, use 0JWW30Z (drainage device), 0JWW33Z (infusion device), 0JWW37Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0JWW3HZ (contraceptive device), 0JWW3JZ (synthetic substitute), 0JWW3KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute) and 4 more.

It is a non-O.R. procedure that is part of the MS-DRG logic for DRG 579 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with MCC), DRG 580 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures with CC) and DRG 581 (Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), under the surgical category “Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures”.

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