The patient presents to the urologist's office for his routine followup following a TURP. During his office visit, he complains of post-op dysuria and urge incontinence. The provider does a cystoscopy to see if everything is healing ok. My CCI edits say 52601 cannot be coded with 52000, even with a modifier. Does this apply to day of procedure only? I deleted the 52000 and changed it to 99024 and was told I was incorrect; that I should have coded it as 52000-58.
