ICD-10-PCS 2W4 Placement: Anatomical Regions Packing

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Packing (code 2W4) refers to the placement of a material into an anatomical region. This procedure aims to fill or tightly pack a body part, often to control bleeding, support tissue, or maintain structure. It falls under the Placement classification.

Within this operation, packing can be performed on various body parts, using specific codes to indicate the exact location. For example, there are dedicated codes for packing the Head (2W40X5Z), Face (2W41X5Z), and Neck (2W42X5Z). The procedure extends to other areas such as the Abdominal Wall, Chest Wall, Back, and limbs including the Right Upper Arm (2W48X5Z) and Left Lower Leg (2W4RX5Z). Each code specifies that the packing is performed using packing material, ensuring precise documentation. Understanding and applying these ICD-10-PCS packing codes is crucial for accurately detailing procedural placement in clinical records.
