ICD-10-PCS 0Q5 Medical and Surgical: Lower Bones Destruction

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Destruction (code starting with 0Q5) involves the deliberate eradication of all or a portion of a body part, such as a bone, without removing it. This operation is classified under the Medical and Surgical section.

This root operation targets various lower bones including the lumbar vertebra, sacrum, pelvic bones, and multiple segments of the femur, tibia, fibula, tarsals, metatarsals, toe phalanges, and coccyx. The procedure can be performed by different approaches such as Open, Percutaneous, or Percutaneous Endoscopic. Some destructions utilize advanced technology, for example, Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy targeting the lumbar vertebra or sacrum (e.g., code 0Q500Z3 for open approach destruction of lumbar vertebra using laser). Other codes, like 0Q520ZZ, represent destruction of the right pelvic bone via an open approach. These distinctions in approach and technology ensure precise coding for detailed procedural documentation and billing related to the destruction of specific bones in the lower body. Accurate use of these ICD-10-PCS destruction operation codes is essential for reflecting the scope and method of the treatment performed.
