About BF0C0ZZ

BF0C0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the hepatobiliary system, all 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 and contrast pancreatogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (87.53 and 87.66).

For a different body part, codes include BF000ZZ (bile ducts) and BF030ZZ (gallbladder and bile ducts).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BF0C1ZZ (low osmolar) and BF0CYZZ (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.
