What does the letter X specifically indicate in the approach for the Chiropractic Table coding?

In ICD-10-PCS coding, the letter "X" is used to indicate a non-manual approach, which is pertinent for procedures involving a Chiropractic Table. This means that during the procedure, the chiropractor does not utilize hands-on techniques or manual manipulation of the patient's body in the traditional sense. Instead, the use of a Chiropractic Table suggests that the approach may involve mechanical or technological assistance.

In contrast, the manual approach would involve hands-on manipulation, which is not indicative when "X" is used. This distinction is crucial for accurately coding chiropractic interventions, as it reflects the specific type of intervention provided and aligns with the guidelines set forth in ICD-10-PCS.
