When a patient has more than one stone in one kidney (multiple stones), or stones in both kidneys or ureters (bilateral stones), the urologist can gain more reimbursement and avoid fraud by coding based on the type of removal performed. Different types of stone removals are outlined below with the correct coding solutions.

The scientific name for a kidney stone is renal calculus or nephrolith. You may hear health care professionals call this condition nephrolithiasis, urolithiasis, or urinary stones.
Hydronephrosis is a condition where one or both kidneys become stretched and swollen as the result of a build-up of urine inside them. It can affect people of any age and is sometimes spotted in unborn babies during routine pregnancy ultrasound scans.
Kidney stones form when your urine contains more crystal-forming substances — such as calcium, oxalate and uric acid — than the fluid in your urine can dilute. At the same time, your urine may lack substances that prevent crystals from sticking together, creating an ideal environment for kidney stones to form.
Nephrolithiasis, or kidney stone disease, is a condition in which individuals form calculi (stones) within the renal pelvis and tubular lumens. Stones form from crystals that precipitate (separate) out of the urine.
A staghorn calculus is a type of kidney stone. (Calculus in this case means a stone. The plural is calculi or stones.) A staghorn calculus is the name given to a branching kidney stone, and may form if you have repeated urinary tract infections (UTIs).

A kidney stone, also known as a renal calculus or nephrolith, is a solid piece of material which is formed in the kidneys from minerals in urine. Kidney stones typically leave the body in the urine stream, and a small stone may pass without causing symptoms. If stones grow to sufficient size (usually at least 3 millimeters (0.1 in)) they can cause blockage of the ureter. This leads to pain, most commonly beginning in the flank or lower back and often radiating to the groin. This pain is often known as renal colic and typically comes in waves lasting 20 to 60 minutes. Other associated symptoms include: nausea, vomiting, fever, blood in the urine, pus in the urine, and painful urination. Blockage of the ureter can cause decreased kidney function and dilation of the kidney.

This pain is often known as renal colic and typically comes in waves lasting 20 to 60 minutes.
Here the patient is not coming after the treatment and he/she just to come for the evaluation, hence V72.5 is the only code which we can use and there is no signs or symptoms noted in the record.
Nothing mentioned in the PO except kedney stone, No any sign or symptom.
You can not code renal/kidney stones if the documentation does not support it. In addiditon the documentation must also support a history a calculli to use the V codes. The physician needs to be queried for more documentation or you must code underlying symptons only.
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. N20.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of calculus of kidney. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.

If the urologist removes stones from both ureters at the same session use 52320-50.
Removal by ureteroscopy is coded 52320 52325 52330 52352 or 52353. Only ureteroscopy codes 52353 (cystourethroscopy with ureteroscopy and/or pyeloscopy; with lithotripsy [ureteral catheterization is included]) and 52354 (… with biopsy and/or fulgration of lesion) can be billed bilaterally says Cynthia Jackson RRA CPC coding specialist for Emory University Urology Group in Atlanta. “It is appropriate to bill these with a -50 modifier ” she says. When performing ureteroscopic stone removals sequentially do not use modifier -58 because ureteroscopies have zero-day global periods.
Cysto with lithotripsy. When performing a combination of lithotripsy and ureteroscopy bill 52353. If there are multiple stones in one ureter append modifier -22 and include the operative note.
If one stone requires manipulation and another requires removal you may append modifier -22 to 52352. You cannot bill for the procedures separately because Medicare does not allow bilateral billing on 52352.
Use -LT and -RT modifiers to indicate on which kidney the 50590 is per-formed. If the left kidney stone is treated first use 50590-LT; for the second ESWL use 50590-RT-58. Sometimes stones are treated more than once. For example the left kidney is treated in July and again in August and the right is treated in September.
The urologist can often ethically gain more reimbursement for treating multiple and/or bilateral stones. Multiple Stones. The urologist performs ESWL to break up a kidney stone. But neither the technique nor the code allows the urologist to target just one stone, says Sandy Page, CPC, CCS-P, co-owner of Medical Practice Support Services in Denver.
When a patient has more than one stone in one kidney (multiple stones), or stones in both kidneys or ureters (bilateral stones), the urologist can gain more reimbursement and avoid fraud by coding based on the type of removal performed.
Stones in the kidney, usually formed in the urine-collecting area of the kidney (kidney pelvis). Their sizes vary and most contains calcium oxalate.
The following may be signs of kidney stones that need a doctor's help: extreme pain in your back or side that will not go away. blood in your urine. fever and chills. vomiting. urine that smells bad or looks cloudy.
vomiting. urine that smells bad or looks cloudy. a burning feeling when you urinate. Condition marked by the presence of renal calculi, abnormal concretions within the kidney, usually of mineral salts. Crystals in the pelvis of the kidney.
Most kidney stones pass out of the body without help from a doctor. But sometimes a stone will not go away.
