Axis Breakdown
Every ICD-10-PCS code is exactly seven characters, one per axis. Each character's meaning is defined by its position in the code.
| Position | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Section0 | Medical and Surgical |
| 2 | Body SystemK | Muscles |
| 3 | Root OperationX | Transfer Moving, without taking out, all or a portion of a body part to another location to take over the function of all or a portion of a body part |
| 4 | Body Part0 | Head Muscle |
| 5 | Approach4 | Percutaneous Endoscopic |
| 6 | DeviceZ | No Device |
| 7 | Qualifier2 | Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue |
Potential MS-DRG Relationships (FY2026)
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 6 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 01 — Peripheral, Cranial Nerve and Other Nervous System Procedures: DRG 040, DRG 041, DRG 042
- MDC 08 — Soft Tissue Procedures: DRG 500, DRG 501, DRG 502
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
Contextual Map
