B50 PCS Table

In an PCS table each code is represented by up seven alphanumeric characters, with each character in the table respresenting different aspects of the procedure. In the table provided below, each row represents an individual character and includes information about the character's position, designation, label, and procedure notes. For this PCS table the procedure code is in the imaging section and is part of the veins body system, classified under plain radiography operation.

Position Designation Character Label Procedures Notes
1 Section B Imaging
2 Body System 5 Veins
3 Operation 0 Plain Radiography

Involves:
Planar display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on photographic or photoconductive plate

What is ICD-10-PCS?

The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a catalog of procedural codes used by medical professionals for hospital inpatient healthcare settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates. The 2025 ICD-10-PCS codes are to be used for discharges occurring from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025.

Each ICD-10-PCS code has a structure of seven alphanumeric characters and contains no decimals. The first character defines the major "section". Depending on the "section" the second through seventh characters mean different things.
