About BT14ZZZ

BT14ZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fluoroscopy procedure on the kidneys, ureters and bladder 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 percutaneous pyelogram and other x-ray of the urinary system, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (87.75 and 87.79).

For a different body part, codes include BT10ZZZ (bladder), BT11ZZZ (right kidney), BT12ZZZ (left kidney), BT13ZZZ (bilateral kidneys), BT15ZZZ (urethra), BT16ZZZ (right ureter) and 6 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BT140ZZ (high osmolar), BT141ZZ (low osmolar) and BT14YZZ (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.
