Knee replacement, also called knee arthroplasty or total knee replacement, is a surgical procedure to resurface a knee damaged by arthritis. Metal and plastic parts are used to cap the ends of the bones that form the knee joint, along with the kneecap.

Code 29879 includes chondroplasty performed as part of the abrasion arthroplasty, so code 29877 should not be separately reported. If, however, chondroplasty is performed in a separate knee compartment, code 29877 may be reported separately.
By definition, 29880 reports meniscectomy in both the medial and lateral compartments, while 29881 defines a meniscectomy in either the medial or lateral compartment.Feb 1, 2016
Arthroscopy is used to diagnose and treat a wide range of knee problems. During knee arthroscopy, your surgeon inserts a small camera, called an arthroscope, into your knee joint. The camera displays pictures on a video monitor, and your surgeon uses these images to guide miniature surgical instruments.
ICD-10-CM Code for Encounter for other orthopedic aftercare Z47. 89.
Arthroplasty is a surgical procedure to restore the function of a joint. A joint can be restored by resurfacing the bones. An artificial joint (called a prosthesis) may also be used. Various types of arthritis may affect the joints.
Treatment can also occur through the arthroscope by creating additional small incisions and inserting instruments such as scissors, shavers, or lasers. Almost all arthoscopic procedures are done on an outpatient basis.
There are four knee ligaments: anterior cruciate, posterior cruciate, medial collateral, and lateral collateral. Current sprains and strains of the knee are classified to category 844. The fourth digit will classify the ligament involved. A torn, ruptured, or detached ligament is also included in category 844.
The fifth character identifies the approach. Arthroscopy would be considered percutaneous endoscopic, which is defined as entry, by puncture or minor incision, of instrumentation through the skin or mucous membrane and any other body layers necessary to reach and visualize the site of the procedure.
A fifth digit is required to identify the ligament involved. Tearing of knee cartilage or meniscus: The wedge-shaped pieces of cartilage in the knee joint are called meniscus and act as shock absorbers. They can tear in different ways and are classified by how they look and where the tear occurs.
According to Coding Clinic, surgical approaches (eg, scopes) are not coded if a more definitive procedure is performed. Therefore, if a procedure was done via a scope, assign a code for the procedure ...
An important HCPCS code is G0289, Arthroscopy, knee, surgical, for removal of loose body, debridement/shaving of articular cartilage (chondroplasty) at the time of other surgical knee arthroscopy in a different compartment of the same knee. This code is used for Medicare to report the procedure in that description, when performed in a separate compartment of the knee during the same operative session. It is not appropriate to use code 29877 even with a modifier.
Slippery and flexible, hyaline (articular) cartilage within the knee joint allows, has less friction than two pieces of glass placed together. This allows the joint to move with minimal friction in a healthy knee. There are two primary types of cartilage in the knee:
“From a CPT® coding perspective, if debridement or shaving of articular cartilage and meniscectomy are performed in the same compartment of the knee, then only code 29881, Arthroscopy, knee, surgical; with meniscectomy (medial or lateral, including any meniscal shaving), should be reported. However, if debridement or shaving of articular cartilage is performed in one compartment of the knee and a meniscectomy is performed in a different compartment of the knee, then codes 29877, Arthroscopy, knee, surgical; debridement/shaving of articular cartilage (chondroplasty), and 29881 should be reported.”
29876 for the extensive synovectomy is the only code reported. G0289 for the loose body is NOT CODED because the synovectomy was done in the same compartment as the loose body and therefore it was not in a separate compartment and is not to be coded.
