About 6A221ZZ

6A221ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a electromagnetic therapy procedure on the central nervous using a multiple approach with no qualifier. In ICD-10-PCS, electromagnetic therapy means extracorporeal treatment by electromagnetic rays.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other miscellaneous procedures, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (99.99).

For a different body part, codes include 6A211ZZ (urinary).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 6A220ZZ (single).

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.
