ICD-10-PCS Code For Salivary Glands, Bilateral: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group B90D includes procedures performed to image salivary gland structures in the ear, nose, mouth and throat anatomical area. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when planar radiographic imaging of bilateral salivary glands is performed to evaluate anatomy or disease. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS B90D group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Salivary Glands, Bilainal Plain Radiography Procedure Overview
This procedure group includes plain radiography imaging performed on the salivary glands, targeting the ear, nose, mouth and throat body system. Procedures capture planar images using external ionizing radiation on photographic or photoconductive plates to visualize salivary gland anatomy and pathology. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these plain radiography procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement and for reflecting the imaging performed in the medical record.
