About DWY57ZZ

DWY57ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a other radiation procedure on the whole body using a contact radiation approach with none (qualifier: none).

In plain terms, this corresponds to superficial radiation, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.21).

For a different body part, codes include DWY17ZZ (head and neck), DWY27ZZ (chest), DWY37ZZ (abdomen), DWY47ZZ (hemibody) and DWY67ZZ (pelvic region).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded DWY58ZZ (hyperthermia) and DWY5FZZ (plaque radiation).

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.
