(CO 3) What is the ICD-10-PCS code for open reduction with internal fixation of themaxilla? Your Answer: Reposition Head and Facial Bones (Maxilla) Open Internal Fixation Device No Qualifier 0NSR04Z 0NSR04Z (Chapter 16)
Your Answer : Reposition Head and Facial Bones ( Maxilla ) Open Internal Fixation Device No Qualifier 0NSR04Z 0NSR04Z ( Chapter 16 ) Question 13 3 / 3 pts (COs 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) Using your coding manual, assign the correct ICD-10-PCScode (s) for the following procedure.
This entry directs users to code 79.15, Closed reduction of fracture with internal fixation, femur. In ICD-10-PCS, it is important to note that the objective of the procedure is to reposition the displaced fracture into its normal anatomic location.
In PCS, the application of fixation of a bone has a code for each bone. You will find these codes under insertion; it is not called a fixation with PCS Coding. Remember, if you are working on a fracture, you are working with the bone, not the joint.

This new class of intramedullary nail, the so-called “cephalomedullary nail” includes the Long Gamma Nail (LGN), the Trochanteric Femoral Nail (TFN), and the Intertroch/Subtroch Nail (ITST).
An intramedullary nail is a metal rod that is inserted into the medullary cavity of a bone and across the fracture in order to provide a solid support for the fractured bone. Intramedullary nailing is currently considered the "gold standard" for treatment of femoral shaft fractures (Rudloff 2009).
PROCEDURE: Open reduction, internal fixation (ORIF) of bilateral mandible fractures with multiple approaches, CPT code 21470, and surgical extraction of teeth #17, CPT code 41899.
Mandibulo-maxillary fixation (MMF) screws are inserted into the bony base of both jaws in the process of fracture realignment and immobilisation. The screw heads act as anchor points to fasten wire loops or rubber bands connecting the mandible to the maxilla.
Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), in contrast, allows for direct visualization and reduction of fractured bone segments and restoration of the patient's preinjury occlusion without complete fixation of the mandible and maxilla.
0NSP04Z is a billable procedure code used to specify the performance of reposition right orbit with internal fixation device, open approach. The code is valid for the year 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
Each ICD-10-PCS code has a structure of seven alphanumeric characters and contains no decimals . The first character defines the major "section". Depending on the "section" the second through seventh characters mean different things.
The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a catalog of procedural codes used by medical professionals for hospital inpatient healthcare settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates. These 2022 ICD-10-PCS codes are to be used for discharges occurring from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022.
S. Reposition. Involves: Moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part. Explanation: The body part is moved to a new location from an abnormal location, or from a normal location where it is not functioning correctly.

The root operation Extraction is used to report an amniocentesis.
Diagnostic or therapeutic dilation and curettage performed during times other than the postpartum or post-abortion period are all coded in the Medical and Surgical section, to the root operation Extraction and the body part Endometrium.
Only one code is available for a normal spontaneous vaginal delivery.
Editor's note: This is the fifth in a series of 10 articles discussing the 31 root operations of ICD-10-PCS.
Putting a pin in a non-displaced fracture is coded to the root operation Insertion.
ICD-10-PCS distinguishes the specific finger as well as laterality whereas ICD-9-CM only distinguishes between finger and thumb reattachment procedures without further specificity.
Coding Guideline B3.16: Transplantation vs. Administration#N#Putting in a mature and functioning living body part taken from another individual or animal is coded to the root operation Transplantation. Putting in autologous or nonautologous cells is coded to the Administration section.
The ICD-10-PCS procedure code for this procedure is 0TY00Z0. The fourth character (0) identifies the body part as the right kidney and the fifth character (0) identifies the approach or technique used to reach the operative site as open. The seventh character (0) identifies the donor kidney as allogeneic—taken from different individuals of the same species.
The definition for the root operation Reattachment provided in the 2014 ICD-10-PCS Reference Manual is, "Putting back in or on all or a portion of a separated body part to its normal location or other suitable location." Reattachment procedures include putting back a body part that has been cut off or avulsed. Nerves and blood vessels may or may not be reconnected during the reattachment procedure. Reattachment procedures can be performed on a variety of body parts, not limited to those that are musculoskeletal. Specific qualifiers are provided for the body parts upper tooth and lower tooth to indicate whether a single tooth, multiple teeth, or all teeth were reattached.
An additional code is assigned to identify the source of the donor kidney, 00.92, Transplant from live non-related donor.
Example: Closed reduction of fracture is coded to the External approach.
Fusions happen on joints; insertions for a fracture are coded to the specific bone and will be found in the section under lower bones .
Removal procedure is coded for taking out the device used in a previous replacement.
PCS does offer "Fusion" (Operation G). Therefore, a fusion of the ankle joint does have its own code and can be found in the lower joints section representing the fourth character.
When coding a fixation performed with the fracture, you need to remember ; if the fixation was done internally it may be included with CPT and the external fixation is coded separately using the codes below.
Therefore, since "Replacement" is not used to replace wires or pins, you will use "Removal" and "Insertion" procedures for removing and replacing a device used in a previous replacement procedure.
We now understand that with PCS, the root operations are different than CPT; for fractures, we are coding the bone, not the joint, the Talus, along with six other bones are included with the Tarsal bone. The approach on a joint and the root operation is is not a replacement but removal and insertion.
