About D9YDFZZ
D9YDFZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a other radiation procedure on the nasopharynx using a plaque radiation approach with none (qualifier: none).
In plain terms, this corresponds to other radiotherapeutic procedure, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.29).
For a different body part, codes include D9Y0FZZ (ear), D9Y1FZZ (nose), D9Y4FZZ (mouth), D9Y5FZZ (tongue), D9Y6FZZ (salivary glands), D9Y7FZZ (sinuses) and 4 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded D9YD7ZZ (contact radiation), D9YD8ZZ (hyperthermia) and D9YDCZZ (intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT)).
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.
