The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).
Why ICD-10 codes are important
The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
Other abnormalities of breathing R06. 89 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R06. 89 became effective on October 1, 2021.
About Conductive Hearing Loss A conductive hearing loss happens when sounds cannot get through the outer and middle ear. It may be hard to hear soft sounds. Louder sounds may be muffled. Medicine or surgery can often fix this type of hearing loss.
ICD-10 Code for Unspecified hearing loss, left ear- H91. 92- Codify by AAPC.
41 - Sensorineural hearing loss, unilateral, right ear, with unrestricted hearing on the contralateral side.
Conductive hearing loss occurs when sound conduction is impeded through the external ear, the middle ear, or both. Sensorineural hearing loss occurs when there is a problem within the cochlea or the neural pathway to the auditory cortex.

Asymmetrical sensorineural hearing loss (ASNHL) is defined as binaural difference in bone conduction thresholds of >10 dB at two consecutive frequencies or >15 dB at one frequency (0.25–8.0 kHz)3 (Figure 1).
Asymmetric hearing loss has been defined as a difference of 15 dB between the right and left ears at three contiguous frequencies. No matter the degree of loss, asymmetric hearing loss requires further evaluation. Generally, this workup includes auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing or MRI.
3 Sensorineural hearing loss, bilateral.
H1 Profile: The H1 profile is often assumed to indicate that a Service member has “normal” hearing, but it really means that the individual has no more than a “mild” hearing loss.
Causes of unilateral hearing loss It can be inherited (as other types of genetic hearing loss). It can occur as a result of a trauma or injury to the head. An acoustic neuroma often results in a unilateral hearing loss. If can be a result of viral or bacterial infections.
Introduction. Subjective hearing loss (SHL), which includes auditory-cognitive related activity limitations (listening, communication, conversation, sound recognition, focussing attention, etc.), is the most common and problematic condition in the aging population with or without hearing loss (HL) [1.
A disorder characterized by partial or complete loss of the ability to detect or understand sounds resulting from damage to ear structures. A general term for the complete or partial loss of the ability to hear from one or both ears. A partial or complete loss of hearing in one or both ears. It is classified as conductive, sensory, or central.
It is classified as conductive, sensory, or central. An inherited or acquired condition characterized by a partial or complete loss of hearing in one or both ears. The level of impairment varies from a mild but important loss of sensitivity to a total loss of hearing. Hearing loss in frequencies above 1000 hertz.
Causes include exposure to loud noise, ear infections, injuries to the ear, genetic, and congenital disorders. Code History.
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code H91.92 and a single ICD9 code, 389.9 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
H91.92 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of unspecified hearing loss, left ear. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
