About DH072ZZ
DH072ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a beam radiation procedure on the skin, back using a photons >10 mev approach with none (qualifier: none).
In plain terms, this corresponds to teleradiotherapy using photons, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.24).
For a different body part, codes include DH022ZZ (skin, face), DH032ZZ (skin, neck), DH042ZZ (skin, arm), DH062ZZ (skin, chest), DH082ZZ (skin, abdomen), DH092ZZ (skin, buttock) and 1 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded DH070ZZ (photons <1 mev), DH071ZZ (photons 1 - 10 mev), DH073ZZ (electrons), DH074ZZ (heavy particles (protons,ions)), DH075ZZ (neutrons) and DH076ZZ (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.
