ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System 7W - Anatomical Regions
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Anatomical Regions (character 7W) pertains to osteopathic procedures focusing on specific body areas rather than discrete organs or tissues. It involves manipulation and manual treatment methods aimed at addressing dysfunction within defined anatomical regions.
Within the Osteopathic classification, this root operation is exemplified by the procedure coded 7W0, which signifies manual treatment intended to eliminate or alleviate somatic dysfunction and related disorders. This approach targets functional disturbances by applying hands-on techniques rather than surgical interventions. Understanding and properly coding these codes is essential in documenting osteopathic care and reflecting the holistic nature of treatment provided to patients through region-focused manual therapies.
