ICD-10-PCS Code For Sternoclavicular Joint: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group BP00 includes procedures performed to capture planar radiographic images of bones and joints in the specified anatomical location. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when plain radiography of the sternoclavicular joint is performed to evaluate injury, degenerative change, infection, or other pathology. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS BP00 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Sternoclavicular Joint Plain Radiography Procedure Overview

This procedure group includes plain radiography imaging of the right sternoclavicular joint, capturing planar images of the non-axial upper bones using external ionizing radiation. Procedures target the sternoclavicular joint on the right side and involve obtaining radiographic images on photographic or photoconductive plates or detectors. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding ensures inpatient records reflect the imaging performed and supports correct case mix assignment and reimbursement.

BP00ZZZ	Plain Radiography of Right Sternoclavicular Joint

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A middle-aged patient presents to the emergency department after a motor vehicle collision with localized pain, swelling, and deformity over the right sternoclavicular region. Concern for acute dislocation or fracture of the right sternoclavicular joint prompts inpatient plain radiography to evaluate alignment, bony injury, and to guide urgent management. Imaging is obtained using external ionizing radiation to produce planar views of the right sternoclavicular joint. Typical codes: BP00ZZZ
An elderly patient admitted from clinic for workup of chronic right sternoclavicular joint pain and progressive limitation of shoulder motion undergoes inpatient plain radiography to assess degenerative changes and rule out erosive arthropathy. Standard planar radiographs of the right sternoclavicular joint are performed to document joint space narrowing, osteophytes, or other structural abnormalities prior to planning nonoperative management. The imaging captures the non-axial upper bone joint using external ionizing radiation. Typical codes: BP00ZZZ
A patient with recent right sternoclavicular joint infection admitted for IV antibiotics has persistent focal pain and concern for underlying osteomyelitic change. Inpatient plain radiography of the right sternoclavicular joint is performed to evaluate for bony destruction or new subluxation as part of the complication assessment and to help determine need for further advanced imaging or surgical consultation. Planar images using external ionizing radiation are obtained to document progression or resolution of osseous involvement. Typical codes: BP00ZZZ
