ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System XN - Bones

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Bones (XN) within the New Technology section covers procedures involving the application of devices or materials related to bone function and structure. This root operation addresses both the insertion and modification of elements that support or replace bone functions.

Specific examples of this root operation include Insertion (XNH), which involves placing a nonbiological appliance that monitors or assists physiological functions without replacing the bone itself. Another example is Replacement (XNR), where biological or synthetic materials physically take the place of all or part of a bone. Additionally, Reposition (XNS) entails moving a bone or a portion of it back to its normal or a suitable location. Lastly, Supplement (XNU) involves reinforcing or augmenting bone function with biological or synthetic materials. These codes provide detailed options for coding advanced bone-related procedures performed using new technologies.
