About BB2FZZZ
BB2FZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the trachea/airways using a none 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 other computerized axial tomography, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.38).
For a different body part, codes include BB24ZZZ (bilateral lungs), BB27ZZZ (right tracheobronchial tree), BB28ZZZ (left tracheobronchial tree) and BB29ZZZ (bilateral tracheobronchial trees).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded BB2F0ZZ (high osmolar), BB2F1ZZ (low osmolar) and BB2FYZZ (other contrast).
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.
