ICD-10-PCS Code For Renal Artery: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group B42M includes procedures performed to image renal artery structures in the lower arteries using computerized tomography. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when multiplanar, computer reformatted CT imaging of the renal arteries is performed to evaluate vascular anatomy or pathology. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS B42M group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Renal Artery Computerized Tomography Procedure Overview
Procedures in this group involve computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation targeting the renal arteries. These imaging procedures capture detailed vascular anatomy of the lower arteries and are performed using computerized tomography. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding for these procedures ensures inpatient records reflect the specific imaging performed and supports appropriate reimbursement and clinical documentation. Precise coding also aids case mix classification and quality reporting.
