ICD-10-PCS Code For Breast Right: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group BH30 includes procedures performed to image and evaluate breast tissue in the right breast. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a magnetic resonance imaging examination of the right breast is performed for diagnostic evaluation or treatment planning. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS BH30 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Breast Right Magnetic Resonance Imaging Procedure Overview

This group includes inpatient magnetic resonance imaging procedures of the right breast. These procedures capture multiplanar images developed from radiofrequency signals emitted by nuclei in breast tissue and target the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and breast. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding ensures the imaging performed is correctly documented and supports appropriate inpatient reimbursement and case mix assignment.

ICD-10-PCS Codes

ICD-10-PCS Code	Description
BH30Y0Z	Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of Right Breast using Other Contrast, Unenhanced and Enhanced
BH30YZZ	Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of Right Breast using Other Contrast
BH30ZZZ	Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of Right Breast

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A middle-aged woman admitted for inpatient management after a recent diagnosis of a large, suspicious right breast mass found on mammography and ultrasound; she requires detailed tissue characterization and extent-of-disease assessment to plan surgery and possible neoadjuvant therapy, so a right breast MRI is performed to obtain high-resolution multiplanar images of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and glandular breast to evaluate lesion size and multifocality. Typical codes: BH30ZZZ
An inpatient undergoing preoperative staging after biopsy-proven right breast cancer who needs contrast-enhanced imaging to delineate tumor margins and assess for additional ipsilateral lesions; because contrast was used during the MRI to improve lesion conspicuity and surgical planning, an enhanced right breast MRI is obtained during the hospital stay. Typical codes: BH30Y0Z, BH30YZZ
A patient admitted emergently with suspected implant rupture and new right breast pain and edema after recent trauma; to evaluate the breast tissue and related soft-tissue changes noninvasively and guide further management, an MRI of the right breast is performed to assess implant integrity and surrounding breast structures. Typical codes: BH30ZZZ
