ICD-10-PCS code range (DU2), contains ICD-10-PCS codes for Central and Peripheral Nervous System, Radiation Therapy, Female Reproductive System, Stereotactic Radiosurgery.
Z01.81 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z01.81 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Z01.818Most pre-op exams will be coded with Z01. 818. The ICD-10 instructions say to use the preprocedural diagnosis code first, and then the reason for the surgery and any additional findings.
Encounter for other preprocedural examinationICD-10 code Z01. 818 for Encounter for other preprocedural examination is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .

When you bill for this service, the primary diagnosis on the claim, and the one attached to the EM code on the line item, will be a Z code (e.g., Z01. 818, “Encounter for other preprocedural examination”). The secondary diagnosis will be the reason for the surgery, the cataract in the right eye (e.g., H25.
A preoperative examination to clear the patient for surgery is part of the global surgical package, and should not be reported separately. You should report the appropriate ICD-10 code for preoperative clearance (i.e., Z01. 810 – Z01. 818) and the appropriate ICD-10 code for the condition that prompted surgery.
When the surgeon sees the patient the day of surgery prior to the operation that visit is not billable. This is because the preoperative time of that visit has already been valued in the 90-day global code (CPT 27447) as part of the pre-time package.
Definition: The Preoperative Diagnosis Section records the surgical diagnosis or diagnoses that are assigned to the patient before the surgical procedure, and is the reason for the surgery. The Preoperative Diagnosis is, in the opinion of the surgeon, the diagnosis that will be confirmed during surgery.

Contractors may specify Bill Types to help providers identify those Bill Types typically used to report this service. Absence of a Bill Type does not guarantee that the article does not apply to that Bill Type.
Contractors may specify Revenue Codes to help providers identify those Revenue Codes typically used to report this service. In most instances Revenue Codes are purely advisory. Unless specified in the article, services reported under other Revenue Codes are equally subject to this coverage determination.
Encounter for preprocedural examinations 1 Z01.81 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. 2 The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM Z01.81 became effective on October 1, 2020. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z01.81 - other international versions of ICD-10 Z01.81 may differ.
Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00 -Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'. This can arise in two main ways:

Stereotaxis precisely maps the individual anatomy for the surgeon. In a stereotactic procedure, the surgeon creates a 3D image to help plan the route and method for surgery. The surgeon is also able to assess the risks associated with the procedure.
The CPT® codes for stereotactic biopsy, aspiration, or excision are:#N#61750 Stereotactic biopsy, aspiration, or excision, including burr hole (s), for intracranial lesion;#N#61751 with computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance guidance#N#You may report these codes only once per session, regardless of the number of lesions treated.#N#For radiological supervision and interpretation of CT scans, see 70450 Computed tomography, head or brain; without contrast material, 70460 Computed tomography, head or brain; with contrast material (s), or 70470 Computed tomography, head or brain; without contrast material, followed by contrast material (s) and further sections.#N#For radiological supervision and interpretation of MRI, see 70551 Magnetic resonance (eg, proton) imaging, brain (including brain stem); without contrast material, 70552 Magnetic resonance (eg, proton) imaging, brain (including brain stem); with contrast material (s), or 70553 Magnetic resonance (eg, proton) imaging, brain (including brain stem); without contrast material, followed by contrast material (s) and further sequences.#N#In certain cases, stereotactic procedures involve mounting a stereotactic head for reference. The frame of reference allows for measurements to accurately localize the target lesion within the skull. The application and removal of the stereotactic frame is not reported with 20660 Application of cranial tongs, caliper, or stereotactic frame, including removal (separate procedure), unless it is performed as a separate procedure (Refer to CPT® Surgery Guidelines for separate procedures).
When medically reasonable and necessary, the use of a stereotactic guidance system may be reported in addition to the intracranial procedure codes that fall within the range of CPT codes 61304, 61305, 61510, 61512, 61514, 61516. 61517, 61518-61521; 61526-61530; 61541; 61545-61548; 61592; 61608; 61680-
This policy is intended to cover those uses of stereotactic computer assisted volumetric and or navigational procedures which could correctly be identified by the use of CPT codes 61781, 61782 and 61783 (add-on codes), recognized for payment by Medicare, when their use is considered medically reasonable and necessary.
This reimbursement policy applies to services reported using the Health Insurance Claim Form CMS-1500 or its electronic equivalent or its successor form, and services reported using facility claim form CMS-1450 or its electronic equivalent or its successor form.

Abstract: Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) are methods of delivering ionizing radiation using highly focused convergent beams to target a lesion while limiting exposure of adjacent structures. “Stereotactic” describes target lesion localization relative to a known three dimensional reference system that allows for a high degree of anatomic accuracy and precision.
