About BB2900Z

BB2900Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the bilateral tracheobronchial trees using a high 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 BB2400Z (bilateral lungs), BB2700Z (right tracheobronchial tree), BB2800Z (left tracheobronchial tree) and BB2F00Z (trachea/airways).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BB2910Z (low osmolar) and BB29Y0Z (other contrast).

With a different device, use BB290ZZ (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.
