About BF030ZZ
BF030ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the gallbladder and bile ducts 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 intraoperative cholangiogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.53).
For a different body part, codes include BF000ZZ (bile ducts) and BF0C0ZZ (hepatobiliary system, all).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded BF031ZZ (low osmolar) and BF03YZZ (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.
