About the DM1 Code Range
These procedures treat the left or right breast with brachytherapy, a form of radiation therapy that uses a radioactive source.
The fourth character identifies the left or right breast. The fifth distinguishes High Dose Rate (HDR) from Low Dose Rate (LDR). The sixth identifies the isotope: cesium 131 or 137, iridium 192, iodine 125, palladium 103, californium 252, or Other Isotope. The seventh specifies Unidirectional Source or None.
Questions About This Page
How many billable codes are in the DM1 range?
Of the 29 codes in this range, 28 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.
