About 0MRN0KZ

0MRN0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the right knee bursa and ligament using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, replacement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically takes the place and/or function of all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of joint, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.96).

For a different body part, codes include 0MR00KZ (head and neck bursa and ligament), 0MR10KZ (right shoulder bursa and ligament), 0MR20KZ (left shoulder bursa and ligament), 0MR30KZ (right elbow bursa and ligament), 0MR40KZ (left elbow bursa and ligament), 0MR50KZ (right wrist bursa and ligament) and 21 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0MRN4KZ (percutaneous endoscopic).

With a different device, use 0MRN07Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0MRN0JZ (synthetic substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 400 (Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection), DRG 488 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection with CC/MCC), DRG 489 (Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection 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 “Knee Procedures with Principal Diagnosis of Infection”, “Knee Procedures without Principal Diagnosis of Infection”, “Other O.R.
