About 0KS10ZZ

0KS10ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the facial muscle using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other muscle transposition, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.79).

For a different body part, codes include 0KS00ZZ (head muscle), 0KS20ZZ (right neck muscle), 0KS30ZZ (left neck muscle), 0KS40ZZ (tongue, palate, pharynx muscle), 0KS50ZZ (right shoulder muscle), 0KS60ZZ (left shoulder muscle) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0KS14ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

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 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), DRG 500 (Soft Tissue Procedures with MCC) and DRG 501 (Soft Tissue Procedures with CC), under the surgical categories “Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures”, “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”, “Soft Tissue Procedures” and 3 more.

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