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.
Their corresponding character in ICD-10-CM is:
ICD-10 Code for Encounter for surgical aftercare following surgery on specified body systems- Z48. 81- Codify by AAPC.
Use Z codes to code for surgical aftercare. Z47. 89, Encounter for other orthopedic aftercare, and. Z47.
Encounter for other specified surgical aftercare Z48. 89 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 Z48. 89 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Z48. 815 - Encounter for surgical aftercare following surgery on the digestive system. ICD-10-CM.
Aftercare visit codes are assigned in situations in which the initial treatment of a disease has been performed but the patient requires continued care during the healing or recovery phase, or for the long-term consequences of the disease.
Follow-up. The difference between aftercare and follow-up is the type of care the physician renders. Aftercare implies the physician is providing related treatment for the patient after a surgery or procedure. Follow-up, on the other hand, is surveillance of the patient to make sure all is going well.

998.83 - Non-healing surgical wound | ICD-10-CM.
Z48. 812 Encntr for surgical aftcr following surgery on the circ sys - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Other specified postprocedural statesICD-10 Code for Other specified postprocedural states- Z98. 890- Codify by AAPC. Factors influencing health status and contact with health services. Persons with potential health hazards related to family and personal history and certain conditions influencing health status.
Following ICD-10 guidelines, if a patient has or has had an HIV related condition, use B20 AIDS. If the patient has a positive HIV status, without symptoms or related conditions, use Z21.
This second example uses Z09, which indicates surveillance following completed treatment of a disease, condition, or injury. Its use implies that the condition has been fully treated and no longer exists. Z09 would be used for all annual follow-up exams, provided no complications or symptoms are present.
99024Post-operative visits should be reported with CPT code 99024 when the visit is furnished on the same day as an unrelated E/M service (billed with modifier 24).
It is also acceptable to put Z48. 00 in the primary spot when the coding sequence or non-surgical wound you are coding as primary does not fall into the wound primary clinical grouping.
V58.42 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of aftercare following surgery for neoplasm. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.
V58.78 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of aftercare following surgery of the musculoskeletal system, nec. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
Information for Patients. After Surgery. Also called: Postoperative care, Recovery from surgery. After any operation, you'll have some side effects. There is usually some pain with surgery. There may also be swelling and soreness around the area that the surgeon cut.
These are unplanned events linked to the operation. Some complications are infection, too much bleeding, reaction to anesthesia, or accidental injury. Some people have a greater risk of complications because of other medical conditions.
Code also note - A "code also" note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction. Code first - Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology.
There are too many surgeries for the ICD9 to have a status post code for each of them, so V45.89 can be used for status postoperative NEC. It's what I use (when there isn't a specific status post code for the surgery we performed) if the patient isn't having issues and our Doc's are just rounding status post surgery.
As per ICD guideline, 'status post' indicate that 'a patient is either a carrier of a disease or has the sequelae or residual of a past disease or condition & also status code is distinct from a history code. The history code indicates that the patient no longer has the condition'. Owing to this, a history code cannot be choosen and so a direct code should be taken. Eg: CAD s/p CABG implies 414.00 and V45.81.
