About XW0DX38
XW0DX38 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the mouth and pharynx using an external approach with maribavir anti-infective (qualifier: new technology group 8). In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.
With a different device, use XW0DXK8 (paclitaxel-coated balloon technology, three balloons).
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 FY2023, effective October 1, 2022.
