About the XRH Code Range
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Insertion (Code XRH) in the New Technology section refers to placing a device into a body part. This operation is specifically applied here to the insertion of advanced spinal stabilization and motion preservation devices into joints of the spine.
Within this classification, the codes represent the insertion of pedicle-based carbon/PEEK spinal stabilization devices into vertebral joints at various spinal levels, such as Thoracic, Thoracolumbar, Lumbar, and Lumbosacral joints. Multiple approaches are documented, including Open, Percutaneous, and Percutaneous Endoscopic, reflecting minimally invasive to traditional surgical techniques. For example, code XRH60FA describes insertion into a single thoracic vertebral joint via an open approach, while XRH83FA relates to insertion into eight or more thoracic vertebral joints using a percutaneous approach. Additionally, some codes correspond to the insertion of posterior spinal motion preservation devices, emphasizing innovations in spinal surgery. These detailed codes enable precise documentation of new technology procedures involving spinal joint stabilization.
Questions About This Page
