Questions About X27R3C5
Is X27R3C5 still a valid ICD-10-PCS code?
No. X27R3C5 was deleted from ICD-10-PCS effective October 1, 2024, with the FY 2025 code set. It cannot be reported for inpatient discharges on or after that date.
What replaced X27R3C5?
The CMS ICD-10-PCS conversion table maps X27R3C5 to 047R372. Confirm it matches the procedure documentation before you use it; a conversion is a starting point, not an automatic substitution.
Can I still use X27R3C5 for older discharges?
Yes, for inpatient discharges from October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2024. ICD-10-PCS codes are assigned by the code set in effect on the date of discharge, so a corrected or late claim for a discharge in that window still uses X27R3C5.
