About the DG0 Code Range
These procedures deliver beam radiation to the pituitary gland, pineal body, adrenal glands, parathyroid glands, or thyroid.
The fourth character identifies the treatment site. The fifth distinguishes photons by energy level from electrons, neutrons, and neutron capture. The sixth character is always None for isotope. The seventh marks treatment during an operation, called Intraoperative, or has no qualifier.
Questions About This Page
How many billable codes are in the DG0 range?
Of the 36 codes in this range, 35 are billable and valid for inpatient claim submission from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. Table header codes group them but cannot be reported on claims.
What does the DG0 range classify?
The range classifies Beam Radiation procedures, a type of radiation therapy that uses a machine to aim high-energy rays at the cancer from outside of the body, performed on the endocrine system. Each code adds the body part, approach, device, and qualifier in characters four through seven, and links to its own reference page.
