I tried this question in Urology but have not received a response so I am hoping someone here can help me!!
My general surgeon performed a procedure on a patient and then had to bring the patient back into the OR because the patient was unable to urinate. So, my doctor did a laparoscopy and then placed a suprapubic catheter. I can only find CPT 51102 but I don't believe that is correct. Is there a code for this or will I have to use CPT 51999? Any help is appreciated as I don't code in the Urology section
