ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System X0 - Nervous System
The ICD-10-PCS root operations within the Nervous System under the New Technology section include targeted procedures such as Destruction, Insertion, and Other Procedures. These operations focus on innovative methods to treat or manage neurological conditions.
Destruction involves the physical eradication of all or part of a nervous system structure using energy, force, or destructive agents, aimed at eliminating problematic tissue. An example is the use of laser or radiofrequency energy to ablate nerve tissue. The Insertion root operation refers to placing a nonbiological device that monitors or supports nervous system function without replacing any body part—such as implanting a neurostimulator to modulate nerve activity. Lastly, Other Procedures encompass various advanced techniques designed to remediate or cure neurological diseases using novel approaches. These codes under the New Technology classification enable precise documentation of emerging nervous system treatments, critical for accurate coding and clinical communication.

X05 - Destruction - Physical eradication of all or a portion of a body part by the direct use of energy,force, or a destructive agent
X0H - Insertion - Putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents aphysiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part
X0Z - Other Procedures - Methodologies which attempt to remediate or cure a disorder or disease
