About 0SBJ3ZZ
0SBJ3ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a excision procedure on the left tarsal joint using a percutaneous approach. In ICD-10-PCS, excision means cutting out or off, without replacement, a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Synovectomy, foot and toe and other excision of joint, foot and toe, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (80.78 and 80.98).
For a different body part, codes include 0SB03ZZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SB23ZZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SB33ZZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SB43ZZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SB53ZZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SB63ZZ (coccygeal joint) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SBJ0ZZ (open) and 0SBJ4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 503 (Foot Procedures with MCC), DRG 504 (Foot Procedures with CC), DRG 505 (Foot 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 “Foot 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.
