About DF036ZZ

DF036ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a beam radiation procedure on the pancreas 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 DF006ZZ (liver), DF016ZZ (gallbladder) and DF026ZZ (bile ducts).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded DF030ZZ (photons <1 mev), DF031ZZ (photons 1 - 10 mev), DF032ZZ (photons >10 mev), DF033ZZ (electrons), DF034ZZ (heavy particles (protons,ions)) and DF035ZZ (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.
