About BH3JYZZ

BH3JYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure on the subcutaneous tissue, lower extremity using an other contrast approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) means computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of radiofrequency signals emitted by nuclei in a body site excited within a magnetic field.

In plain terms, this corresponds to magnetic resonance imaging of other and unspecified sites, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.97).

For a different body part, codes include BH30YZZ (right breast), BH31YZZ (left breast), BH32YZZ (bilateral breasts), BH3DYZZ (subcutaneous tissue, head/neck), BH3FYZZ (subcutaneous tissue, upper extremity), BH3GYZZ (subcutaneous tissue, thorax) and 1 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BH3JZZZ (none).

With a different device, use BH3JY0Z (unenhanced and enhanced).

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.
