About D910B8Z

D910B8Z is the ICD-10-PCS code for a brachytherapy procedure on the ear using a low dose rate (LDR) approach with iridium 192 (ir-192) (qualifier: none).

In plain terms, this corresponds to Radioisotopic teleradiotherapy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.23).

For a different body part, codes include D911B8Z (nose), D913B8Z (hypopharynx), D914B8Z (mouth), D915B8Z (tongue), D916B8Z (salivary glands), D917B8Z (sinuses) and 5 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded D91098Z (high dose rate (HDR)).

With a different device, use D910B6Z (cesium 131 (cs-131)), D910B7Z (cesium 137 (cs-137)), D910B9Z (iodine 125 (I-125)), D910BBZ (palladium 103 (pd-103)), D910BCZ (californium 252 (cf-252)) and D910BYZ (other isotope).

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.
