SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose: The ICD-10 Coordination and Maintenance (C&M) Committee is

Matters To Be Considered: The tentative agenda will include
discussions on ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS topics listed below. Agenda
items are subject to change as priorities dictate.
Please refer to the posted agenda for updates one month prior to
the meeting.
ICD-10-PCS Topics
1. Administration of fostamatinib(1), (2)
2. Administration of betibeglogene autotemcel (beti-cel)(1)
3. Administration of RBX2660(1)
4. Pressure-controlled Intermittent Coronary Sinus Occlusion
5. Measurement of Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNo)
6. Histotripsy of Liver
7. Replacement of Meniscus with Synthetic Substitute (1)
8. Section X Updates
9. Addenda and Key Updates
(1) Applicant intends to submit a New Technology Add-on Payment
(NTAP) application for FY 2023.
(2) Request is for an April 1, 2022 implementation date.
Presentations for procedure code requests are conducted by both the
requestor and CMS during the Coordination & Maintenance Committee
meeting. Discussion from the requestor generally focuses on the
clinical issues for the procedure or technology, followed by the
proposed coding options from a CMS analyst. Topics presented may also
include requests for new procedure codes that relate to a new
technology add-on payment (NTAP) policy request.
CMS is continuing to modify the approach for presenting the new
technology add-on payment (NTAP) related ICD-10-PCS procedure code
requests that involve the administration of a therapeutic agent.
Consistent with the requirements of section 1886(d)(5)(K)(iii) of the
Social Security Act, applicants submitted requests to create a unique
procedure code to describe the administration of a therapeutic agent,
such as the option to create a new code in Section X within the ICD-10-
PCS procedure code classification. CMS will initially only display
those meeting materials associated with the NTAP related ICD-10-PCS
procedure code requests that involve the administration of a
therapeutic agent on the CMS website in early August 2021 at: <a href="https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Coding/ICD10/C-and-M-Meeting-Materials">https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Coding/ICD10/C-and-M-Meeting-Materials</a>.
The three NTAP related ICD-10-PCS procedure code requests that
involve the administration of a therapeutic agent are:
1. Administration of fostamatinib
2. Administration of betibeglogene autotemcel (beti-cel)
3. Administration of RBX2660
These topics will not be presented during the September 14-15, 2021
meeting. CMS will solicit public comments regarding any clinical
questions or coding options included for these three procedure code
topics in advance of the meeting continuing through the end of the
public comment period. The deadline to submit comments for topics being
considered for April 1, 2022 implementation is October 15, 2021 and the
deadline to submit comments for topics being considered for an October
1, 2022 implementation is November 15, 2021. Members of the public
should send any questions or comments to the CMS mailbox at:
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#58111b1c082a373b3d3c2d2a3d1b373c3d0a3d292d3d2b2c183b352b7630302b763f372e"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="0b42484f5b7964686e6f7e796e48646f6e596e7a7e6e787f4b68667825636378256c647d">[email protected]</span></a> by the designated deadline dates
mentioned above.
CMS intends to post a question and answer document in advance of
the meeting to address any clinical or coding questions that members of
the public may have submitted. Following the conclusion of the meeting,
CMS will post an updated question and answer document to address any
additional clinical or coding questions that members of the public may
have submitted during the meeting that CMS was not able to address or
that were submitted after the meeting.
The NTAP related ICD-10-PCS procedure code requests that do not
involve the administration of a therapeutic agent and all non-NTAP
related procedure code requests will continue to be presented during
the virtual meeting on September 14, 2021
[[Page 40055]]
