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).
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.
What is an ICD-10 diagnosis code? The ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) is a system used by physicians and other healthcare providers to classify and code all diagnoses, symptoms and procedures recorded in conjunction with hospital care in the United States.
ICD-9-CM Coding 355.9, Mononeuritis of unspecified site. Peripheral neuropathy that is not further specified as being caused by an underlying condition is assigned to code 356.9. Autonomic neuropathy not further specified is classified to code 337.9.

ICD-10 code G90. 09 for Other idiopathic peripheral autonomic neuropathy is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
Neuropathy is when nerve damage interferes with the functioning of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). When the cause can't be determined, it's called idiopathic neuropathy. The PNS carries information from the central nervous system (CNS), or brain and spinal cord, to the rest of the body.
Neuropathic pain encompasses a category of chronic pain conditions that are caused by disease or lesion of the somatosensory nervous system. Depending on the location of the lesion or disease, neuropathic pain can be categorized as peripheral, central, or mixed.
Neuropathic pain is now defined by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) as 'pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system'.

Idiopathic peripheral neuropathy refers to damage of the peripheral nerves where cause can not be determined. When the peripheral nerves are damaged, there are often symptoms that affect the feet.
Some forms of neuropathy involve damage to only one nerve (called mononeuropathy). Neuropathy affecting two or more nerves in different areas is called multiple mononeuropathy or mononeuropathy multiplex. More often, many or most of the nerves are affected (called polyneuropathy).
To help doctors classify them, they are often broken down into the following categories:Motor neuropathy. This is damage to the nerves that control muscles and movement in the body, such as moving your hands and arms or talking.Sensory neuropathy. ... Autonomic nerve neuropathy. ... Combination neuropathies.
TestsBlood tests. These can detect vitamin deficiencies, diabetes, abnormal immune function and other indications of conditions that can cause peripheral neuropathy.Imaging tests. ... Nerve function tests. ... Other nerve function tests. ... Nerve biopsy. ... Skin biopsy.
These nerves include cranial nerves, spinal nerve roots & ganglia, nerve trunks & division, along with nerves of the autonomic nervous system. [1] There are several methods used to classify peripheral neuropathies including categorizing them as mono-neuropathies, multifocal neuropathies, and poly-neuropathies.
