About XW0H738

XW0H738 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the lower GI using a via natural or artificial opening 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.

For a different body part, codes include XW0G738 (upper GI).

With a different device, use XW0H7K8 (paclitaxel-coated balloon technology, three balloons) and XW0H7X8 (peptide enhanced 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 FY2023, effective October 1, 2022.
