ICD-10-PCS Code For Pancreas: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group BF37 includes procedures performed to image the pancreas using magnetic resonance imaging. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a detailed, noninvasive multiplanar evaluation of the pancreas and adjacent hepatobiliary structures is required. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS BF37 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Pancreas Magnetic Resonance Imaging Procedure Overview
This procedure group includes magnetic resonance imaging examinations of the pancreas performed using radiofrequency signals within a magnetic field to produce computer reformatted multiplanar images. These procedures target the hepatobiliary system and pancreas and are used to evaluate pancreatic anatomy, pathology, and surrounding structures. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these inpatient magnetic resonance imaging procedures supports correct clinical documentation and appropriate inpatient reimbursement.
