About 0SU53JZ
0SU53JZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a supplement procedure on the sacrococcygeal joint using a percutaneous approach with synthetic substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, supplement means putting in or on biological or synthetic material that physically reinforces and/or augments the function of a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other repair of joint and insertion of other spinal devices, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (81.96 and 84.59).
For a different body part, codes include 0SU03JZ (lumbar vertebral joint), 0SU23JZ (lumbar vertebral disc), 0SU33JZ (lumbosacral joint), 0SU43JZ (lumbosacral disc), 0SU63JZ (coccygeal joint), 0SU73JZ (right sacroiliac joint) and 15 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0SU50JZ (open) and 0SU54JZ (percutaneous endoscopic).
With a different device, use 0SU537Z (autologous tissue substitute) and 0SU53KZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 028 (Spinal Procedures with MCC), DRG 029 (Spinal Procedures with CC or Spinal Neurostimulators), DRG 030 (Spinal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 518 (Back and Neck Procedures Except Spinal Fusion with MCC or Disc Device or Neurostimulator), 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 “Spinal Procedures”, “Back and Neck Procedures Except Spinal Fusion or Disc Device or Neurostimulator”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and 1 more.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
