About the X2H Code Range
These procedures put devices in the cardiovascular system to monitor or assist a body function without replacing a body part. They include pacemaker and defibrillator components, heart-assist equipment, and devices placed inside blood vessels.
The fourth character names the site, such as a vein, artery, or heart chamber, and specifies right or left where applicable. The fifth distinguishes Open from Percutaneous, which reaches the site through a puncture or small incision. The sixth identifies the device or technology, including pacing electrodes, a dual-chamber pacemaker, temporary devices inside vessels, and a conduit to a short-term external heart assist system. The seventh specifies New Technology Group 9, New Technology Group 11, or New Technology Group 12.
FY 2027 changes: The FY 2027 ICD-10-PCS update, effective October 1, 2026, added X2H43MC, X2HM3GB and X2HV3GB.
