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 SystemN | Head and Facial Bones |
| 3 | Root OperationP | Removal Taking out or off a device from a body part |

Potential MS-DRG Relationships (FY2026)
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 5 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 01 — Craniotomy with Major Device Implant or Acute Complex CNS Principal Diagnosis: DRG 023, DRG 024
- MDC 01 — Craniotomy and endovascular intracranial procedures: DRG 025, DRG 026, DRG 027
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
Contextual Map
Every relationship of 0NP00SZ in one view: hierarchy, official tabular instructions in both directions, clinical classification, risk adjustment, MS-DRG participation, index terms and change history — each edge carrying the CMS source it derives from.
