BN17ZZZFluoroscopy of Right Temporomandibular Joint

BN17ZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fluoroscopy procedure on the right temporomandibular joint using a none approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, fluoroscopy means single plane or bi-plane real time display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on a fluorescent screen. The image may also be stored by either digital or analog means.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other x-ray of facial bones, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.16).

For a different body part, codes include BN18ZZZ (left temporomandibular joint) and BN19ZZZ (bilateral temporomandibular joints).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BN170ZZ (high osmolar), BN171ZZ (low osmolar) and BN17YZZ (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.
