ICD-10 C and M Meeting Materials
Guidance for meeting materials for the procedure code issues listed by date of the scheduled meetings.
Issued by: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
Issue Date: September 14, 2020
CMS will not be presenting the Spring 2025 ICD-10-PCS procedure code topics during a public meeting. Instead, CMS will be posting the meeting materials and soliciting public comments regarding any clinical questions or coding options consistent with the approach we have utilized as of March 2021 for the procedure code requests that involve a new technology add-on payment (NTAP) application for the administration of a therapeutic agent. The deadline to submit comments for procedure code topics being considered for an October 1, 2025 implementation is April 18, 2025.
Members of the public should send any questions or comments related to the procedure code topics that are under consideration for an October 1, 2025 implementation to the CMS mailbox at: ICDProcedureCodeRequest@cms.hhs.gov by the April 18, 2025 deadline.
All meeting materials and related documents will be made available on the CMS web site at https://www.cms.gov/medicare/coding-billing/icd-10-codes/icd-10-coordination-maintenance-committee-materials. Additionally, CMS will post a question-and-answer document to address any clinical or coding questions that members of the public may have submitted by the designated deadline.
Note: Questions regarding the Diagnosis code topics should be directed to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics at nchsicd10cm@cdc.gov.
Below are the meeting materials for the procedure code issues listed by date of the scheduled meetings. These materials include the Agenda and Materials, as well as any slides or other files made available.
Presentations for procedure code requests are conducted by both the requestor and CMS during the C&M 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) request.
