About BT290ZZ

BT290ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the kidney transplant using a high osmolar approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, computerized tomography (CT scan) means computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation.

In plain terms, this corresponds to computerized axial tomography of kidney, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.71).

For a different body part, codes include BT200ZZ (bladder), BT210ZZ (right kidney), BT220ZZ (left kidney) and BT230ZZ (bilateral kidneys).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BT291ZZ (low osmolar), BT29YZZ (other contrast) and BT29ZZZ (none).

With a different device, use BT2900Z (unenhanced and enhanced).

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.
