How DG1099Z 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. GBody systemWhich system it acts on
  3. 1Root operationThe objective — the verb of the procedure
  4. 0Body partThe specific site
  5. 9ApproachHow the site was reached
  6. 9DeviceWhat was left in place, if anything
  7. ZQualifierA further distinction where one applies
