About B40GYZZ

B40GYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the left lower extremity arteries using an other contrast 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 B400YZZ (abdominal aorta), B402YZZ (hepatic artery), B403YZZ (splenic arteries), B404YZZ (superior mesenteric artery), B405YZZ (inferior mesenteric artery), B406YZZ (right renal artery) and 9 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B40G0ZZ (high osmolar) and B40G1ZZ (low osmolar).

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.
