How BW38YZZ is built

Every ICD-10-PCS code is seven independent character positions. Each one is a separate decision, and the meaning of a character depends on the positions before it.

  1. BSectionImaging — What family of procedure this is
  2. WBody systemWhich system it acts on
  3. 3Root operationThe objective — the verb of the procedure
  4. 8Body partThe specific site
  5. YApproachHow the site was reached
