About 0SRW0KZ

0SRW0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a replacement procedure on the left knee joint, tibial surface 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 total knee replacement, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (81.54).

For a different body part, codes include 0SR00KZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SR20KZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SR30KZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SR40KZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SR50KZ (sacrococcygeal joint), 0SR60KZ (coccygeal joint) and 23 more.

With a different device, use 0SRW07Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0SRW0JZ (synthetic substitute).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 461 (Bilateral or Multiple Major Joint Procedures of Lower Extremity with MCC), DRG 462 (Bilateral or Multiple Major Joint Procedures of Lower Extremity without MCC), DRG 469 (Major Hip and Knee Joint Replacement or Reattachment of Lower Extremity with MCC or Total Ankle Replacement), DRG 470 (Major Hip and Knee Joint Replacement or Reattachment of Lower Extremity without 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 “Bilateral or Multiple Major Joint Procedures of Lower Extremity”, “Major Hip and Knee Joint Replacement or Reattachment of Lower Extremity or Total Ankle Replacement”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.

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