About XW0DXF5
XW0DXF5 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the mouth and pharynx using an external approach with other new technology therapeutic substance (qualifier: new technology group 5). In ICD-10-PCS, introduction means putting in or on a therapeutic, diagnostic, nutritional, physiological, or prophylactic substance except blood or blood products.
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 FY2021, effective October 1, 2020.
