About BF000ZZ
BF000ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the bile ducts using a high osmolar approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, plain radiography means planar display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on photographic or photoconductive plate.
In plain terms, this corresponds to other cholangiogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.54).
For a different body part, codes include BF030ZZ (gallbladder and bile ducts) and BF0C0ZZ (hepatobiliary system, all).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded BF001ZZ (low osmolar) and BF00YZZ (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.
