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.
For example, as shown in Figure A, a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oopherectomy (TAHBSO) in CPT® is coded 58150 Total abdominal hysterectomy (corpus and cervix), with or without removal of tube(s), with or without removal of ovary(s); which is not specific as to whether one or both ovaries and ...
Acquired absence of uterus with remaining cervical stump Z90. 711 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 Z90. 711 became effective on October 1, 2021.
In CPT 2008, the American Medical Association (AMA) published the total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) set of codes (58570-58573). This, in addition to the laparoscopic radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy code (58548), is the third set of CPT codes addressing the laparoscopic approach to hysterectomy.
Technique. Procedure involves the removal of the uterus and cervix. The decision whether or not to remove the fallopian tubes and ovaries is a separate decision. If the ovaries are removed, the procedure name includes the term bilateral salpingoophorectomy (BSO).
An abdominal hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that removes your uterus through an incision in your lower abdomen. Your uterus — or womb — is where a baby grows if you're pregnant. A partial hysterectomy removes just the uterus, leaving the cervix intact. A total hysterectomy removes the uterus and the cervix.
(2008) , hysterectomies were defined using ICD-9-CM procedure codes 68.4, 68.5, or 68.9 in hospital discharge abstracts data.
58552 is a LAVH. Lap Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy and the 58571 is for TLH, Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy.
57260-51—Anterior and posterior (A&P) repair.
Hysterectomy is a surgery to remove the uterus and cervix. “Abdominal” is the surgical technique that will be used. This means the surgery will be done through an incision in your abdomen. A bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is surgery to remove both of your ovaries and fallopian tubes.

During a total hysterectomy, your womb and cervix (neck of the womb) is removed. A total hysterectomy is usually the preferred option over a subtotal hysterectomy, as removing the cervix means there's no risk of you developing cervical cancer at a later date.
The ICD-10-PCS code assignment for this example is: 1 0UT90ZZ, Resection of uterus, open approach (for the hysterectomy) 2 0UTC0ZZ, Resection of cervix, open approach (for removal of the cervix) 3 0UJD4ZZ, Inspection of uterus and cervix, percutaneous endoscopic approach (for the attempted laparoscopic hysterectomy) 4 8E0W4CZ, Robotic assisted procedure of trunk region, percutaneous endoscopic approach (for the attempted robotic-assisted surgery)
Although no federal requirements define the specific health record document types that must be present at the time of coding, the Office of Inspector General’s (OIG) Compliance Program Guidance for Hospitals indicates that “the documentation necessary for accurate code assignment should be available to coding staff.” 1.
In ICD-10-PCS, procedure codes consist of a seven character code structure, with each character code including specific values. ICD-10-PCS coding is applied at the procedure document type level where a code is assigned based on specific values for each of the seven characters (see Figure 1 above).
The UHDDS guidelines state all significant procedures are to be reported and a significant procedure is defined as one that is: Surgical in nature, or. Carries a procedural risk, or. Carries an anesthetic risk, or.
There are three options: A total hysterectomy is the removal of the whole uterus, the fundus, and cervix. A subtotal, partial, or supracervical hysterectomy is the removal of the fundus or top portion of the uterus only, leaving the cervix in place. Radical hysterectomy includes the removal of the entire uterus and nearby tissue, the cervix, ...
Radical hysterectomy includes the removal of the entire uterus and nearby tissue, the cervix, and the top part of the vagina. If you know the approach and extent of the procedure, in some cases you may be able to determine the appropriate code without further detail. For example, an abdominal hysterectomy may be:
CPT® coding for laparoscopic hysterectomy is based on the size of the uterus and the method used to complete the procedure. Documentation should state the weight of the uterus before it is sent to pathology.
The surgical approach can be abdominal (the uterus is removed via an incision in the lower abdomen), vaginal (the uterus is removed via an incision in the vagina), or laparoscopic (procedure is performed using a laparoscope, inserted via several small incisions in the body).
Additional procedures performed during the same session — such as salpingo-oophoprectomy, pelvic floor repairs, or mid-urethral slings — may be bundled into the hysterectomy code. Consider each procedure when making the determination.
Although hysterectomy is a common procedure in gynecology practice, coding for it is a challenge due to so many code choices. Along with the surgical approach and extent (i.e., total or partial) of the hysterectomy, accounting for related performed procedures is key to code selection.
