About B91GYZZ

B91GYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fluoroscopy procedure on the pharynx and epiglottis using an other contrast approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, fluoroscopy means single plane or bi-plane real time display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on a fluorescent screen. The image may also be stored by either digital or analog means.

In plain terms, this corresponds to contrast radiogram of nasopharynx, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.06).

For a different body part, codes include B91JYZZ (larynx).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B91GZZZ (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.
