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).

33947 Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ( ECMO)/ extracorporeal life support (ECLS) provided by physician; initiation, veno-arterial.
Overview. In extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), blood is pumped outside of your body to a heart-lung machine that removes carbon dioxide and sends oxygen-filled blood back to tissues in the body.
Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS) or Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) ECLS involves the artificial support of lung and/or heart function using a machine that oxygenates a patient's blood outside the body and returns it using a pump, thus allowing the heart and lungs to rest.
Under the new ICD-10 codes, ECMO performed using a peripheral cannulation method can be reimbursed using MS-DRGs 291, 296, 207, 870, or 215, depending on disease state. ECMO performed centrally will continue to be reimbursed using MS-DRG 003.
As the terms catheterisation and cannulation are used interchangeably, VICC considers that the appropriate ACHI code to assign for documentation of decannulation of ECMO is 34530-04 [738] Removal of venous catheter following Index entry Removal/catheter/vein as the cannula is being removed entirely rather than being ...
And when is it used? If cardiopulmonary bypass and perfusion are terms used for the same procedure during surgery, then ECMO (or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) is the term used for the procedure after the surgery.
How does ECMO differ from a ventilator? A ventilator moves air in and out of the lungs when you are unable to get enough oxygen on your own. An ECMO machine circulates your blood through a machine to exchange carbon dioxide and deliver oxygen.
There are two types of ECMO, venovenous (VV) and venoarterial (VA) (figure 1 and figure 2 and figure 3). VV ECMO is used in patients with respiratory failure, while VA ECMO is used in patients with cardiac failure.
There are two types of ECMO. Venoarterial (VA) ECMO can be used for heart and lung support, while venovenous (VV) ECMO is used for lung support only. The ECMO team will decide which type will help your loved one the most, based on his or her specific illness.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a treatment that uses a pump to circulate blood through an artificial lung back into the bloodstream of a very ill baby. This system provides heart-lung bypass support outside of the baby's body.
ECMOstands for ExtraCorporeal Membrane Oxygenation. You may also hear it called ECLS, which stands for ExtraCorporeal Life Support. It is a treatment that uses a man-made heart and lung to support the body when a person's own organs are too sick to do the job.
