About BT0B1ZZ
BT0B1ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the bladder and urethra using a low 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 retrograde cystourethrogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.76).
For a different body part, codes include BT001ZZ (bladder), BT011ZZ (right kidney), BT021ZZ (left kidney), BT031ZZ (bilateral kidneys), BT041ZZ (kidneys, ureters and bladder), BT051ZZ (urethra) and 4 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded BT0B0ZZ (high osmolar), BT0BYZZ (other contrast) and BT0BZZZ (none).
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.
