About 0MQQ0ZZ

0MQQ0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a repair procedure on the right ankle bursa and ligament using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, repair means restoring, to the extent possible, a body part to its normal anatomic structure and function.

In plain terms, this corresponds to suture of capsule or ligament of ankle and foot and other operations on muscle, tendon, fascia, and bursa, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (81.94 and 83.99).

For a different body part, codes include 0MQ00ZZ (head and neck bursa and ligament), 0MQ10ZZ (right shoulder bursa and ligament), 0MQ20ZZ (left shoulder bursa and ligament), 0MQ30ZZ (right elbow bursa and ligament), 0MQ40ZZ (left elbow bursa and ligament), 0MQ50ZZ (right wrist bursa and ligament) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0MQQ3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0MQQ4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 500 (Soft Tissue Procedures with MCC), DRG 501 (Soft Tissue Procedures with CC), DRG 502 (Soft Tissue Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC) and DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Soft Tissue Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

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