B4001ZZPlain Radiography of Abdominal Aorta using Low Osmolar Contrast

B4001ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the abdominal aorta 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 Aortography, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.42).

For a different body part, codes include B4021ZZ (hepatic artery), B4031ZZ (splenic arteries), B4041ZZ (superior mesenteric artery), B4051ZZ (inferior mesenteric artery), B4061ZZ (right renal artery), B4071ZZ (left renal artery) and 9 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B4000ZZ (high osmolar) and B400YZZ (other contrast).

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.
