HI
Straight catheterization: If a physician performs this procedure to get residual urine but was not able to get any residual urine can you still bill 51702 or would you need to append a 52 modifier because the urine was not obtainable?

TIA
 
Whether the doc got the urine or not is not the issue. If he performed the catheterization, he should bill for it.
