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

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group BP01 includes procedures performed to capture planar radiographic images of the sternoclavicular joint in the left non-axial upper bones. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when planar radiography of the left sternoclavicular joint is performed for diagnostic evaluation or clinical management. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS BP01 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

BP01ZZZ	Plain Radiography of Left Sternoclavicular Joint

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An adult patient is admitted through the emergency department after a fall onto the left shoulder with localized pain, swelling, and tenderness at the left sternoclavicular region. Concern for fracture, dislocation, or joint widening prompts inpatient plain radiography of the left sternoclavicular joint to evaluate bony alignment and acute osseous injury. Imaging is performed using external ionizing radiation captured on photographic/photoconductive plate to obtain planar views for diagnosis and initial management decisions. Typical codes: BP01ZZZ
A hospitalized patient with progressive pain and decreased range of motion at the left sternoclavicular joint undergoes planned inpatient imaging to assess chronic degenerative change or osteoarthritis after conservative outpatient therapy failed. Plain radiography of the left sternoclavicular joint is obtained to document joint space narrowing, osteophyte formation, or calcification as part of the elective diagnostic workup and to guide further nonoperative management or referral. Typical codes: BP01ZZZ
A patient admitted with persistent pain, erythema, and concern for septic arthritis or osteomyelitis of the left sternoclavicular joint following recent infection undergoes inpatient plain radiography to evaluate for joint space changes, bony destruction, or adjacent soft tissue gas as an initial imaging step. The planar radiographs of the left sternoclavicular joint assist in correlating clinical and laboratory findings and in planning further advanced imaging or surgical consultation if indicated. Typical codes: BP01ZZZ
