ICD-10-PCS 0H2 Medical and Surgical: Skin and Breast Change

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Change (code starting with 0H2) involves the removal and replacement of a device without cutting into the body part. It is commonly used in the Medical and Surgical section for the Skin and Breast body system.

The Change operation is applied when a device such as a drainage device or other implanted items need to be replaced to continue their therapeutic function. For example, codes like 0H2PX0Z and 0H2PXYZ represent changing drainage and other devices in the Skin via an External Approach. Similarly, the procedure for the Right Breast or Left Breast involves replacing drainage devices (0H2TX0Z, 0H2UX0Z) or other devices (0H2TXYZ, 0H2UXYZ) externally. These codes allow precise documentation for device management in dermatological and breast-related interventions, ensuring accurate procedural reporting in clinical practice.
