BP18ZZZFluoroscopy of Right Shoulder

BP18ZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fluoroscopy procedure on the right shoulder using a none 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 skeletal x-ray of shoulder and upper arm, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.21).

For a different body part, codes include BP10ZZZ (right sternoclavicular joint), BP11ZZZ (left sternoclavicular joint), BP12ZZZ (bilateral sternoclavicular joints), BP13ZZZ (bilateral acromioclavicular joints), BP14ZZZ (right clavicle), BP15ZZZ (left clavicle) and 17 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BP180ZZ (high osmolar), BP181ZZ (low osmolar) and BP18YZZ (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.
