Billable / specific codeICD-10-PCS

CMS abbreviated title: Beam Radiation of Brain Stem using Neutron Capture

How D0016ZZ 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. DSectionRadiation Therapy — What family of procedure this is
  2. 0Body systemWhich system it acts on
  3. 0Root operationThe objective — the verb of the procedure
  4. 1Body partThe specific site
  5. 6ApproachHow the site was reached
  6. ZDeviceWhat was left in place, if anything
  7. ZQualifierA further distinction where one applies
