About BT29ZZZ

BT29ZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the kidney transplant using a none 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 BT20ZZZ (bladder), BT21ZZZ (right kidney), BT22ZZZ (left kidney) and BT23ZZZ (bilateral kidneys).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BT290ZZ (high osmolar), BT291ZZ (low osmolar) and BT29YZZ (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.
