About B32RYZZ
B32RYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the intracranial arteries using an other contrast approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, computerized tomography (CT scan) means computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation.
In plain terms, this corresponds to computerized axial tomography of head, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.03).
For a different body part, codes include B320YZZ (thoracic aorta), B325YZZ (bilateral common carotid arteries), B328YZZ (bilateral internal carotid arteries), B32GYZZ (bilateral vertebral arteries), B32SYZZ (right pulmonary artery) and B32TYZZ (left pulmonary artery).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded B32R0ZZ (high osmolar), B32R1ZZ (low osmolar) and B32RZZZ (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.
