About CH20YZZ
CH20YZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging procedure on the right breast using an other radionuclide approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging means introduction of radioactive materials into the body for three dimensional display of images developed from the capture of radioactive emissions.
In plain terms, this corresponds to scan of other sites, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.19).
For a different body part, codes include CH21YZZ (left breast), CH22YZZ (bilateral breasts) and CH2YYZZ (skin, subcutaneous tissue and breast).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded CH201ZZ (technetium 99m (tc-99m)) and CH20SZZ (thallium 201 (tl-201)).
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.
