About 0LWY4YZ
0LWY4YZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a revision procedure on the lower tendon using a percutaneous endoscopic approach with other device. 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 tenotomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (83.13).
For a different body part, codes include 0LWX4YZ (upper tendon).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0LWY0YZ (open) and 0LWY3YZ (percutaneous).
With a different device, use 0LWY40Z (drainage device), 0LWY47Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0LWY4JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0LWY4KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).
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.
