About the 0J2 Code Range
These procedures replace a device in or on subcutaneous tissue or fascia with an identical or similar device at the same site. Subcutaneous tissue lies beneath the skin, and fascia is connective tissue; the change does not cut or puncture skin or a mucous membrane.
The fourth character identifies the head and neck, trunk, upper extremity or lower extremity. The fifth is always External. The sixth distinguishes a Drainage Device from an Other Device, and the seventh is always No Qualifier.
