The ICDâ10âPCS code set has been maintained, enhanced and expanded as a direct result of recommendations for updates (e.g. adding new codes, deleting codes, and editing descriptive material related to existing codes) received from interested stakeholders from both the public and private sectors. Thus, information collected in the application is significant to code set maintenance. The ICDâ10âPCS code set maintenance is an ongoing process, as changes are implemented and updated; therefore, the process requires continual collection of information from applicants on a bi-annual basis. As new technology evolves and new complex medical procedures are developed, requests are submitted to CMS requesting modifications to the ICDâ10âPCS code set. Requests have been received prior to HIPAA implementation and must continue to be collected to facilitate quality decision-making.
