About XW043QB

XW043QB is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the central vein using a percutaneous approach with iloprost (qualifier: new technology group 11). In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.

For a different body part, codes include XW033QB (peripheral vein).

With a different device, use XW0430B (alpha1-proteinase inhibitor), XW0431B (eladocagene exuparvovec), XW043FB (other new technology therapeutic substance), XW043PB (gentamicin-eluting bone void filler), XW043RB (letetresgene autoleucel) and XW043WB (AGN1 bone void filler).

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 FY2026, effective October 1, 2025.
