About B30N1ZZ
B30N1ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the upper arteries, other 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 arteriography of other intrathoracic vessels, arteriography of other specified sites and Fluorescein angiography or angioscopy of eye, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (88.44, 88.49 and 95.12).
For a different body part, codes include B3001ZZ (thoracic aorta), B3011ZZ (right brachiocephalic-subclavian artery), B3021ZZ (left subclavian artery), B3031ZZ (right common carotid artery), B3041ZZ (left common carotid artery), B3051ZZ (bilateral common carotid arteries) and 19 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded B30N0ZZ (high osmolar), B30NYZZ (other contrast) and B30NZZZ (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.
