About DP003ZZ

DP003ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a beam radiation procedure on the skull using an electrons approach with none (qualifier: none).

In plain terms, this corresponds to teleradiotherapy using electrons, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.25).

For a different body part, codes include DP023ZZ (maxilla), DP033ZZ (mandible), DP043ZZ (sternum), DP053ZZ (rib(s)), DP063ZZ (humerus), DP073ZZ (radius/ulna) and 4 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded DP000ZZ (photons <1 mev), DP001ZZ (photons 1 - 10 mev), DP002ZZ (photons >10 mev), DP004ZZ (heavy particles (protons,ions)), DP005ZZ (neutrons) and DP006ZZ (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.
