ICD-10-PCS Code For Hand/Finger Joint, Right: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group BP3C includes procedures performed to capture magnetic resonance imaging multiplanar images of structures in the hand and finger joints, right. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a diagnostic or follow-up magnetic resonance imaging study of the right hand or finger joint is performed to evaluate joint, bone, or soft tissue conditions. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS BP3C group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Hand/Finger Joint Magnetic Resonance Imaging Procedure Overview
This procedure group includes magnetic resonance imaging studies of the right hand and finger joints using radiofrequency signals within a magnetic field to generate multiplanar images. These imaging procedures target the non-axial upper bones and surrounding soft tissues of the hand and fingers to evaluate joint pathology, trauma, or degenerative change. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these imaging procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the specific body part and imaging modality used, supporting appropriate case mix assignment and payment.
