00.19 — Disruption of blood brain barrier via infusion [BBBD]

00.19 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for disruption of blood brain barrier via infusion [BBBD]. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.

The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 8 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 3E030GN (Introduction of Blood Brain Barrier Disruption Substance into Peripheral Vein, Open Approach), 3E033GN (Introduction of Blood Brain Barrier Disruption Substance into Peripheral Vein, Percutaneous Approach) and 3E040GN (Introduction of Blood Brain Barrier Disruption Substance into Central Vein, Open Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
