About BB2710Z
BB2710Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the right tracheobronchial tree using a low osmolar approach with unenhanced and enhanced (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 other computerized axial tomography, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.38).
For a different body part, codes include BB2410Z (bilateral lungs), BB2810Z (left tracheobronchial tree), BB2910Z (bilateral tracheobronchial trees) and BB2F10Z (trachea/airways).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded BB2700Z (high osmolar) and BB27Y0Z (other contrast).
With a different device, use BB271ZZ (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.
