About 0WFR0ZZ

0WFR0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fragmentation procedure on the genitourinary tract using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, fragmentation means breaking solid matter in a body part into pieces.

In plain terms, this corresponds to ultrasonic fragmentation of urinary stones, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (59.95).

For a different body part, codes include 0WF10ZZ (cranial cavity), 0WF30ZZ (oral cavity and throat), 0WF90ZZ (right pleural cavity), 0WFB0ZZ (left pleural cavity), 0WFC0ZZ (mediastinum), 0WFD0ZZ (pericardial cavity) and 4 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0WFR3ZZ (percutaneous), 0WFR4ZZ (percutaneous endoscopic), 0WFR7ZZ (via natural or artificial opening), 0WFR8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic) and 0WFRXZZ (external).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

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