Two codes are assigned for the anterior spinal fusion, as two levels of the spine were fused (L4-L5 and L5-S1). The codes for the anterior spinal fusion are 0SG00AJ (L4-L5) and 0SG30AJ (L5-S1). Two codes are also assigned for the posterior spinal fusion, 0SG0071 (L4-L5) and 0SG3071 (L5-S1).

The codes for the anterior spinal fusion are 0SG00AJ (L4-L5) and 0SG30AJ (L5-S1) . Two codes are also assigned for the posterior spinal fusion, 0SG0071 (L4-L5) and 0SG3071 (L5-S1) . Codes 0SB20ZZ and 0SB40ZZ are also assigned for the discectomy performed at two different levels of the spine. Lastly, code 0QB20ZZ is assigned for the harvesting of the right iliac crest bone graft.
If an interbody fusion device is used (alone or containing other material like bone graft), the procedure is coded with the device value Interbody Fusion Device (A)
The code for this procedure is 0QB20ZZ, with the body part character (fourth character) being 2 for right pelvic bone. The iliac crest does not have its own distinct body part value in ICD-10-PCS, with the ICD-10-PCS Body Part Key indicating that the pelvic bone is the closest proximal branch.
If a mixture of autologous and nonautologous bone graft (with or without biological or synthetic extenders or binders) is used, the procedure is coded with device value Autologous Tissue Substitute (7)
The implementation of ICD-10-PCS has enhanced the skills of coding professionals as it contains many unique features that provide an opportunity to accurately reflect the complexity of the procedures being performed. The assignment of ICD-9-CM procedure codes for spinal fusions often challenged coding professionals, and this has not changed with the transition to ICD-10-PCS. As with the coding of other complex surgical procedures, coding professionals struggle with identifying which portion of the spinal fusion procedure to code or not to code.
Qualifier: The qualifier character identifies the column of the spine being fused (anterior or posterior) and if the surgical approach is from the front or back of the body (see Figure 1 below).
As with Examples #1 and #2, the segmental instrumentation is included in the spinal fusion and is not coded separately. The lumbar decompression L4-L5 and L5-S1 bilateral foraminotomies and L3 decompression laminectomy are also considered to be integral to the spinal fusion and not coded separately.
