About XNS3032

XNS3032 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the cervical vertebra using an open approach with magnetically controlled growth rod(s) (qualifier: new technology group 2). In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to internal fixation of bone without fracture reduction, other bones, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (78.59).

For a different body part, codes include XNS0032 (lumbar vertebra) and XNS4032 (right humeral shaft).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded XNS3332 (percutaneous).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 028 (Spinal Procedures with MCC), DRG 029 (Spinal Procedures with CC or Spinal Neurostimulators), DRG 030 (Spinal Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 518 (Back and Neck Procedures Except Spinal Fusion with MCC or Disc Device or Neurostimulator), DRG 519 (Back and Neck Procedures Except Spinal Fusion with CC) and DRG 520 (Back and Neck Procedures Except Spinal Fusion without CC/MCC), under the surgical categories “Spinal Procedures”, “Back and Neck Procedures Except Spinal Fusion or Disc Device or Neurostimulator”, “Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures” and 3 more.

It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
