About BT011ZZ
BT011ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the right kidney 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 other nephrotomogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.72).
For a different body part, codes include BT001ZZ (bladder), BT021ZZ (left kidney), BT031ZZ (bilateral kidneys), BT041ZZ (kidneys, ureters and bladder), BT051ZZ (urethra), BT061ZZ (right ureter) and 4 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded BT010ZZ (high osmolar), BT01YZZ (other contrast) and BT01ZZZ (none).
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.
