BQ07ZZZPlain Radiography of Right Knee

BQ07ZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the right knee 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 thigh, knee, and lower leg, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.27).

For a different body part, codes include BQ00ZZZ (right hip), BQ01ZZZ (left hip), BQ03ZZZ (right femur), BQ04ZZZ (left femur), BQ08ZZZ (left knee), BQ0DZZZ (right lower leg) and 11 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BQ070ZZ (high osmolar), BQ071ZZ (low osmolar) and BQ07YZZ (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.
