About BT0BZZZ

BT0BZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the bladder and urethra using a none 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 retrograde cystourethrogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.76).

For a different body part, codes include BT00ZZZ (bladder), BT01ZZZ (right kidney), BT02ZZZ (left kidney), BT03ZZZ (bilateral kidneys), BT04ZZZ (kidneys, ureters and bladder), BT05ZZZ (urethra) and 4 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BT0B0ZZ (high osmolar), BT0B1ZZ (low osmolar) and BT0BYZZ (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.
