Can I bill the 52353-52 and 52332-59-512) Can you clarify what documentation is required to be able to code 51729? Is the length of the urethra required to be documented or is it just a possible element?The AUA policy & Advocacy brief for Urodynamcis shows the example documentation of the UPP as, “ Urethreal Pressue Profile: The maximum urethral pressue profile was 45 cm of water with a functional urethral lenght of 2.75 cm. At 200cc, coughing was iniitated. There was no demonstrable leak of urine at 117 cm of water with abdominal straining.”My provider is only documenting: Leak point pressure testing: volume tested: 150mL, Stress Induced DO: Absent Valsalva Leak Point Pressure: No Leak.Is that enough to capture 51729?Thank you for your assistance! 3) Can you tell me the best way to document and correctly bill for prostate biopsy using 55700/76942 and 76872? I am told we are no longer getting paid for those.4) What is the best way to document and code for placement of fiduciary markers under US guidance?Thanks in advancePRS Coding and Reimbursement HubAccess the Hub Free Kidney Stone Coding CalculatorDownload NowPRS Coding CoursesFor UrologistFor APPsFor Coders, Billers, and AdminsPRS Billing and Other Services - Book a Call with Mark Painter or Marianne DescioseClick Here to Get More Information and Request a Quote Join the Urology Pharma and Tech Pioneer GroupEmpowering urology practices to adopt new technology faster by providing clear reimbursement strategies—ensuring the practice gets paid and patients benefit sooner.https://www.prsnetwork.com/joinuptp Click Here to Start Your Free Trial of AUACodingToday.com The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook group.The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook Group link to join:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ThrivingPractice/
