About 0HJT7ZZ

0HJT7ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the right breast using a via natural or artificial opening approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other diagnostic procedures on breast, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (85.19).

For a different body part, codes include 0HJU7ZZ (left breast).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0HJT0ZZ (open), 0HJT3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0HJT8ZZ (via natural or artificial opening endoscopic).

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.
