About BF0C1ZZ

BF0C1ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the hepatobiliary system, all using a low 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 intraoperative cholangiogram and contrast pancreatogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (87.53 and 87.66).

For a different body part, codes include BF001ZZ (bile ducts) and BF031ZZ (gallbladder and bile ducts).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BF0C0ZZ (high osmolar) and BF0CYZZ (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.
