About the XRH Code Range
These procedures put a manufactured device into a spinal joint to preserve motion or provide stabilization without replacing a body part.
The fourth character identifies the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, or lumbosacral joint, including junctions between regions and specified groups of joints. The fifth character distinguishes an open incision from entry through a puncture or small incision, with or without a scope. The sixth identifies a posterior motion preservation device or a spinal stabilization device made of carbon/PEEK or molybdenum rhenium alloy; one carbon/PEEK value specifies a pedicle-based device. The seventh distinguishes New Technology Groups 8, 10, 11, and 12.
FY 2027 changes: The FY 2027 ICD-10-PCS update, effective October 1, 2026, added XRH10NC, XRH13NC, XRH14NC, XRH20NC, XRH23NC, XRH24NC, XRH40NC, XRH43NC, XRH44NC, XRH60NC, XRH63NC and XRH64NC.
Questions About This Page
How many billable codes are in the XRH range?
Of the 48 codes in this range, 47 are billable and valid for inpatient claim submission from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. Table header codes group them but cannot be reported on claims.
What does the XRH range classify?
The range classifies Insertion procedures, putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents aphysiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part, performed on the joints. Each code adds the body part, approach, device, and qualifier in characters four through seven, and links to its own reference page.
