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.
Lung nodules. Small lumps can form in the lungs (rheumatoid nodules), as well as in other parts of the body. Lung nodules usually cause no signs or symptoms, and they don't pose a risk of lung cancer. In some cases, however, a nodule can rupture and cause a collapsed lung.
ICD-10 code R91. 1 for Solitary pulmonary nodule is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
RA-related lung complications are the most common extra-articular (“outside of the joints”) symptoms of RA and include pulmonary nodules (small growths in the lungs); pleural effusion (a buildup of fluid between the lung and chest wall); bronchiectasis (damage to the airways); and interstitial lung disease (ILD).
For example, lung mass and multiple lung nodules are specifically indexed to code R91. 8, Other nonspecific abnormal finding of lung field.
R91. 1 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 R91.
A solitary pulmonary nodule is a round or oval spot (lesion) in the lung that is seen with a chest x-ray or CT scan. This CT scan shows a single lesion (pulmonary nodule) in the right lung.
Rheumatoid lung disease is a group of lung problems related to rheumatoid arthritis. The condition can include: Blockage of the small airways (bronchiolitis obliterans) Fluid in the chest (pleural effusions)
In the radiological semiology they are defined as rounded, multiple nodules, and more rarely as solitary nodules. They are preferentially located in the middle and superior peripheral lobe or pleural-based, with a size ranging from millimeters to 7cm.
Imaging of rheumatoid pulmonary nodules demonstrates nodules which are multiple in number with smooth borders, cavitation, satellite nodules and subpleural location with occasional subpleural rind. They are rarely spiculated in contrast to malignancy.

Can a CT scan tell if a lung nodule is cancerous? The short answer is no. A CT scan usually isn't enough to tell whether a lung nodule is a benign tumor or a cancerous lump. A biopsy is the only way to confirm a lung cancer diagnosis.
