DM0 Beam Radiation - Breast ICD-10-PCS
The DM0 code range contains 17 ICD-10-PCS codes for Beam Radiation procedures on the breast. 16 of the codes are billable and valid for inpatient claim submission in fiscal year 2027.
Root Operation Definition
Beam Radiation: A type of radiation therapy that uses a machine to aim high-energy rays at the cancer from outside of the body.

About the DM0 Code Range
These procedures direct beam radiation at the left or right breast.
The fourth character identifies which breast receives treatment. The fifth separates photons by energy: below 1 MeV, 1 - 10 MeV, or above 10 MeV. It also distinguishes electrons, heavy particles (protons or ions), neutrons, and neutron capture. The sixth character is None for isotope. The seventh distinguishes Intraoperative, meaning during an operation, from None.
Questions About This Page
How many billable codes are in the DM0 range?
Of the 17 codes in this range, 16 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 DM0 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 breast. Each code adds the body part, approach, device, and qualifier in characters four through seven, and links to its own reference page.
