ICD-10-PCS X0H New Technology: Nervous System Insertion
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Insertion (code X0H) refers to putting in a device or substance directly into a body part, specifically within the New Technology section. This operation is primarily used to place neurostimulator leads in the nervous system to assist with therapeutic interventions.
Examples of this root operation include the insertion of a neurostimulator lead into specific nervous system sites using a Percutaneous Approach. For instance, code X0HK3Q8 denotes placing a lead into the Sphenopalatine Ganglion, while code X0HQ3R8 describes insertion of a lead with a paired stimulation system into the Vagus Nerve. These codes reflect advanced neurological device placements performed via minimally invasive methods, highlighting the precision and technological sophistication captured in the ICD-10-PCS Insertion operation for nervous system interventions under new technology.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify 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). There are a total of 3 procedure codes in this section.
