ICD-10-PCS Code For Subcutaneous Tissue, Abdomen And Pelvis: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group BH3H includes procedures performed to image subcutaneous tissue in the abdomen and pelvis using magnetic resonance imaging. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when magnetic resonance imaging of the subcutaneous tissue of the abdomen or pelvis is performed for diagnostic evaluation, staging, or treatment planning. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS BH3H group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific imaging modality and anatomical focus used during the inpatient encounter.

Subcutaneous Tissue, Abdomen And Pelvis Magnetic Resonance Imaging Procedure Overview
This procedure group includes magnetic resonance imaging studies of the subcutaneous tissue in the abdomen and pelvis. These procedures capture multiplanar images generated from radiofrequency signals emitted by nuclei in soft tissues and are recorded under the Imaging section of ICD-10-PCS. They target the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and breast body system for diagnostic evaluation and treatment planning. Accurate coding is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the exact imaging modality and anatomical focus used for patient care.
