About DW024ZZ

DW024ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a beam radiation procedure on the chest using a heavy particles (protons,ions) 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 DW014ZZ (head and neck), DW034ZZ (abdomen), DW044ZZ (hemibody), DW054ZZ (whole body) and DW064ZZ (pelvic region).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded DW020ZZ (photons <1 mev), DW021ZZ (photons 1 - 10 mev), DW022ZZ (photons >10 mev), DW023ZZ (electrons), DW025ZZ (neutrons) and DW026ZZ (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.
