0SPC4LZ

Removal of Med Unicnd from R Knee Jt, Perc Endo Approach

V44.0 O.R. procedure Procedure cluster member Reassigned in V44.0

An operating room procedure. An O.R. procedure drives DRG assignment on its own, so it can change the MDC and MS-DRG regardless of the principal diagnosis. It is also part of a procedure cluster, meaning certain combinations group differently than this code does alone.
