Oldie but a goodie: https://journal.ahima.org/new-covid-19-codes-to-be-implemented-soon/

I can't wait until this code is in use:
XW013K6 Introduction of leronlimab monoclonal antibody into subcutaneous tissue, percutaneous approach, new technology group 6

"In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics (CDC/NCHS) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) are implementing six new ICD-10-CM and 21 new ICD-10-PCS codes, effective January 1, 2021."

"The new ICD-10-PCS procedure codes going into effect January 1 describe the introduction or infusion of therapeutics, including monoclonal antibodies, for COVID-19 treatment and vaccines. CMS stated that for hospitalized patients, Medicare pays for the COVID-19 vaccines and their administration separately from the Diagnosis-Related Group rate. As such, Medicare expects that the appropriate CPT codes (see the discussion below concerning new CPT codes for COVID-19 vaccines) will be used when a Medicare beneficiary is administered a vaccine while a hospital inpatient. For details on billing Medicare for the COVID-19 vaccine appropriately, please see the CMS website: https://www.cms.gov/medicare/covid-19/medicare-billing-covid-19-vaccine-shot-administration.";

Lets hope this is SOON. Oddly enough I searched for Lenz via a 'Find on page': but couldn't find a match. Perhaps my spelling is off..
