Wiki Flexible cystoscope through a suprapubic tube tract

[MKnisley45]

Need help please, How would you code a Cystoscope which is inserted through a suprapubic tube tract? Would I go unlisted???? I would appreciate any help on this, Thanks

Per an article from Urology Practice Today dated May 2008, the suprapubic tube is functioning as the urethra, therefore, use the appropriate cysto codes. I hope this helps.

I agree 52000 and don't forget that you can charge the placemnet of the suprapubic tube as well 51705
