About D9036ZZ

D9036ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a beam radiation procedure on the hypopharynx using a neutron capture approach with none (qualifier: none).

In plain terms, this corresponds to teleradiotherapy of other particulate radiation, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.26).

For a different body part, codes include D9006ZZ (ear), D9016ZZ (nose), D9046ZZ (mouth), D9056ZZ (tongue), D9066ZZ (salivary glands), D9076ZZ (sinuses) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded D9030ZZ (photons <1 mev), D9031ZZ (photons 1 - 10 mev), D9032ZZ (photons >10 mev), D9033ZZ (electrons), D9034ZZ (heavy particles (protons,ions)) and D9035ZZ (neutrons).

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.
