About DB070ZZ
DB070ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a beam radiation procedure on the chest wall 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 DB000ZZ (trachea), DB010ZZ (bronchus), DB020ZZ (lung), DB050ZZ (pleura), DB060ZZ (mediastinum) and DB080ZZ (diaphragm).
The same procedure with a different approach is coded DB071ZZ (photons 1 - 10 mev), DB072ZZ (photons >10 mev), DB073ZZ (electrons), DB074ZZ (heavy particles (protons,ions)), DB075ZZ (neutrons) and DB076ZZ (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.
