About D0000ZZ

D0000ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a beam radiation procedure on the brain using a photons <1 mev approach with none (qualifier: none).

In plain terms, this corresponds to Orthovoltage radiation and teleradiotherapy using photons, the ICD-9-CM procedure titles it maps to (92.22 and 92.24).

For a different body part, codes include D0010ZZ (brain stem), D0060ZZ (spinal cord) and D0070ZZ (peripheral nerve).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded D0001ZZ (photons 1 - 10 mev), D0002ZZ (photons >10 mev), D0003ZZ (electrons), D0004ZZ (heavy particles (protons,ions)), D0005ZZ (neutrons) and D0006ZZ (neutron capture).

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.
