About XRH63GB

XRH63GB is the ICD-10-PCS code for a insertion procedure on the thoracic vertebral joint using a percutaneous approach with molybdenum rhenium alloy spinal stabilization device (qualifier: new technology group 11). In ICD-10-PCS, insertion means putting in a nonbiological appliance that monitors, assists, performs, or prevents a physiological function but does not physically take the place of a body part.

For a different body part, codes include XRH13GB (cervical vertebral joint), XRH23GB (cervical vertebral joints, 2 or more) and XRH43GB (cervicothoracic vertebral joint).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded XRH60GB (open) and XRH64GB (percutaneous endoscopic).

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 907 (Other O.R.
