About B40F0ZZ

B40F0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the right lower extremity arteries using a high 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 femoral and other lower extremity arteries, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.48).

For a different body part, codes include B4000ZZ (abdominal aorta), B4020ZZ (hepatic artery), B4030ZZ (splenic arteries), B4040ZZ (superior mesenteric artery), B4050ZZ (inferior mesenteric artery), B4060ZZ (right renal artery) and 9 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B40F1ZZ (low osmolar) and B40FYZZ (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.
