About XW0U0GA
XW0U0GA is the ICD-10-PCS code for a introduction procedure on the joints using an open approach with vancomycin hydrochloride and tobramycin sulfate anti-infective, temporary irrigation spacer system (qualifier: new technology group 10). 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 FY2025, effective October 1, 2024.
