About 3E00X28

3E00X28 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the skin and mucous membranes using an external approach with anti-infective (qualifier: oxazolidinones). In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.

In plain terms, this corresponds to injection or infusion of oxazolidinone class of antibiotics, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (00.14).

For a different body part, codes include 3E09X28 (nose), 3E0BX28 (ear), 3E0CX28 (eye) and 3E0DX28 (mouth and pharynx).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
