lumbar fusion icd 10
MEQUON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Titan Spine, a medical accessory apparent technology aggregation focused on developing avant-garde surface-enhanced analgesic interbody admixture implants, letters that the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has appear the conception of a new technology ICD-10 cipher for a nanotextured apparent on an interbody admixture device. Titan Spine’s nanoLOCK™ apparent technology, which was the aboriginal FDA-cleared nanotechnology for interbody admixture devices, has been accustomed admission to use this code.
[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="728"]ICD-10 Cortnie_Simmons | lumbar fusion icd 10[/caption]
The “Interbody Admixture Device, Nanotextured Surface” cipher was accustomed as an XRG cipher by CMS and will be able to be acclimated starting October 1, 2016. This cipher was accustomed based on advice presented by Titan Back on its nanoLOCK™ apparent that approved it as a altered and differentiated technology. Added technologies may be added to this cipher but charge aboriginal either authenticate adequation to nanoLOCK™, or authenticate ahead to all added bazaar alternatives through the CMS appointed processes.
Several accomplish were appropriate to annex the nanotextured code. Titan Back has committed years researching and evaluating apparent nanotechnology, including all-encompassing accurate research, assurance evaluations, and analytic attendant assessments bond cellular acknowledgment to analytic outcomes. All acknowledging studies were completed on Titan Spine’s proprietary apparent topography. Next, Titan Back acquired a nanotechnology approval from the FDA that appropriate the enactment of nanoLOCK™’s assurance contour through all-encompassing in-vivo testing. In backward 2015, Titan Back completed the CMS New Technology Procedural Coding System Application and ICD-10 Cipher Request, which was added accurate in aboriginal 2016 through two CMS Public Forums: i) the CMS New Technology Add-On Payment Town Hall and ii) the CMS ICD-10 Coordination & Maintenance Committee. The acme of these accomplish resulted in a Section X New Technology ICD-10 cipher which aligns hospital coding to nanoLOCK™’s artefact distinctiveness.
Peter Ullrich, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Titan Spine, commented, “We are actual admiring with the new nanotextured class appellation that CMS has created. And I am acutely appreciative of the absolute Titan aggregation who formed endlessly to actualize our nanoLOCK™ apparent technology and to annex its code.”

Titan Back offers a abounding band of Endoskeleton® accessories that affection Titan Spine’s proprietary implant apparent technology, consisting of a altered aggregate of channelled topographies at the macro, micro, and nano levels (MMN™). This altered aggregate of apparent topographies is advised to actualize an optimal host-bone acknowledgment and actively participate in the admixture action by announcement the upregulation of osteogenic and angiogenic factors all-important for cartilage growth, auspicious accustomed assembly of cartilage morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), downregulating anarchic factors, and creating the abeyant for a faster and added able-bodied fusion.1,2,3,4 The aggregation will anon be ablution its next-generation nanoLOCK™ apparent technology, which has been apparent to actualize above osteogenic and angiogenic environments back compared to PEEK and the company’s accepted apparent technology.5 All Endoskeleton® accessories are covered by the company’s accident allotment warranty.
