About BP0FZZZ
BP0FZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the left upper arm using a none 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 skeletal x-ray of shoulder and upper arm, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.21).
For a different body part, codes include BP00ZZZ (right sternoclavicular joint), BP01ZZZ (left sternoclavicular joint), BP02ZZZ (bilateral sternoclavicular joints), BP03ZZZ (bilateral acromioclavicular joints), BP04ZZZ (right clavicle), BP05ZZZ (left clavicle) and 21 more.
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.
