About XW033B3
XW033B3 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the peripheral vein using a percutaneous approach with cytarabine and daunorubicin liposome antineoplastic (qualifier: new technology group 3). 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 cancer chemotherapeutic substance, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.25).
For a different body part, codes include XW043B3 (central vein).
With a different device, use XW033F3 (other new technology therapeutic substance).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
