About B920YZZ

B920YZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the ear using an other contrast approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, computerized tomography (CT scan) means computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation.

In plain terms, this corresponds to computerized axial tomography of head, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.03).

For a different body part, codes include B922YZZ (paranasal sinuses), B926YZZ (bilateral parotid glands), B929YZZ (bilateral submandibular glands), B92DYZZ (bilateral salivary glands), B92FYZZ (nasopharynx/oropharynx) and B92JYZZ (larynx).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B9200ZZ (high osmolar), B9201ZZ (low osmolar) and B920ZZZ (none).

With a different device, use B920Y0Z (unenhanced and enhanced).

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.
