About BQ3MYZZ

BQ3MYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure on the left foot using an other contrast approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) means computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of radiofrequency signals emitted by nuclei in a body site excited within a magnetic field.

In plain terms, this corresponds to magnetic resonance imaging of musculoskeletal and other intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (88.94 and 88.96).

For a different body part, codes include BQ30YZZ (right hip), BQ31YZZ (left hip), BQ33YZZ (right femur), BQ34YZZ (left femur), BQ37YZZ (right knee), BQ38YZZ (left knee) and 11 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BQ3MZZZ (none).

With a different device, use BQ3MY0Z (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.

Common questions about BQ3MYZZ

Is BQ3MYZZ a valid ICD-10-PCS code for 2027?

Yes. BQ3MYZZ is valid for inpatient procedures from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What is the ICD-9 procedure code for BQ3MYZZ?

The CMS GEMs map BQ3MYZZ to ICD-9-CM 88.94 (Magnetic resonance imaging of musculoskeletal) and 88.96 (Other intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging).
