About 0KXK0Z6
0KXK0Z6 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a transfer procedure on the right abdomen muscle using an open approach (qualifier: transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap). In ICD-10-PCS, transfer means moving, without taking out, all or a portion of a body part to another location to take over the function of all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap, pedicled, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (85.72).
For a different body part, codes include 0KXL0Z6 (left abdomen muscle).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0KXK4Z6 (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 582 (Mastectomy for Malignancy with CC/MCC), DRG 583 (Mastectomy for Malignancy without CC/MCC), DRG 584 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 585 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC) and DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), under the surgical categories “Mastectomy for Malignancy”, “Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
