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).

Stress fracture, hip, unspecified, sequela
Code 715.9x is assigned when it is not specified as generalized or localized. However, it is encouraged not to assign this unspecified code. According to AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM, when the osteoarthritis “affects only one site but is not identified as primary or secondary, it is coded to 715.3x.”.
For patients with a history of osteoporosis fracture, status code Z87. 310, personal history of (healed) osteoporosis fracture, should come after the code from M81. ∎ Osteoporosis with current pathological fracture: Category M80 is used for patients who have a current pathologic fracture at the time of the encounter.
ICD-10 code M80. 08XA for Age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, vertebra(e), initial encounter for fracture is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Osteopathies and chondropathies .
Pathological fracture, hip, unspecified, initial encounter for fracture. M84. 459A 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 M84.
A pathologic bone fracture due to osteoporosis. It is generally caused by a fall from a standing height or lower and usually involves the spine, hip, or wrist. Breaks in bones resulting from low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration characteristic of osteoporosis.

0 is the diagnosis code used for Age-Related Osteoporosis without Current Pathological Fracture. A disorder characterized by Loss of bone mass and strength due to nutritional, metabolic, or other factors, usually resulting in deformity or fracture; a major public health problem of the elderly, especially women.
ICD-10-CM S72. 001A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 521 Hip replacement with principal diagnosis of hip fracture with mcc. 522 Hip replacement with principal diagnosis of hip fracture without mcc.
ICD-10 Code for Unspecified fracture of right femur, initial encounter for closed fracture- S72. 91XA- Codify by AAPC.
Abstract. Background: Many orthopedic practices routinely code hip fracture hemiarthroplasty as Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) 27125 even though 27236 is the correct CPT code.
A vertebral fracture may occur spontaneously and thus be more easily identified as occurring due to a disease (e.g. osteoporosis) and, therefore, coded as a pathologic fracture (ICD9 733.13). In contrast, a hip fracture usually occurs in association with a fall, even though the fracture may have caused the fall.
A hip fracture is a break in the upper portion of the femur (thighbone). Most hip fractures occur in elderly patients whose bones have become weakened by osteoporosis. When a hip fracture occurs in a younger patient, it is typically the result of a high-energy event, such as a fall from a ladder or vehicle collision.
Vertebral, or spinal, fractures are the most common fractures caused by osteoporosis. Spinal fractures increase the risk of not only having another spinal fracture, but also of having other low-impact fractures. Sometimes, spinal fractures don't have obvious symptoms and may be mistaken for something like back pain.
Osteoporosis without current pathological fracture. If the patient does not have current pathological fracture, you should select a code from the M81 series (even if the patient had pathological fracture in the past). A sixth digit indicates laterality. For example:
Risk factors for osteoporosis are aging, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, and osteomalacia. Osteoporosis is an asymptomatic unless complications (e.g., fracture) occur. Loss of bone mass leads to loss of bone strength, such that even a trivial trauma may be severe enough to cause a fracture.
Causes may include senility (old age), inadequate intake of calcium and vitamin D, and protein deficiency.
Osteoporosis also may be related to endocrinal conditions, such as Cushing syndrome, hyperthyroid state, thyrotoxicosis, and diabetes mellitus. Finally, osteoporosis may be drug induced, for instance as a result of long-term steroid therapy.
