The 12 new ICD-10-PCS procedure codes listed are designated as non-OR and do not affect any major diagnostic category or MS-DRG assignment.

As of April 1, coding teams now have 42 new diagnosis codes and 34 new ICD-10-PCS procedure codes to choose from.

Public health authorities, such as the CDC and FDA, can have access to the codes, but are generally not connected to names and other identifying info.
