About B01B1ZZ
B01B1ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fluoroscopy procedure on the spinal cord using a low osmolar approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, fluoroscopy means single plane or bi-plane real time display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on a fluorescent screen. The image may also be stored by either digital or analog means.
In plain terms, this corresponds to contrast myelogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.21).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded B01B0ZZ (high osmolar), B01BYZZ (other contrast) and B01BZZZ (none).
It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
