Cystourethroscopy is a procedure that allows your provider to visually examine the inside of your bladder and urethra. This is done using either a rigid or flexible tube (cystoscope), which is inserted through the urethra and into the bladder.
0 Urinary tract infection, site not specified.
Your bladder walls must work harder as your bladder tries to force out urine. This causes the bladder walls to thicken. That thickening of the bladder walls is called trabeculation. When your bladder walls get too thick, they lose the ability to expand and contract, making it hard for your body to expel urine.

The secondary site may be the principal or first-listed with the Z85 code used as a secondary code. Based on these guidelines, Dx coding for visits in which surveillance cystoscopy is performed and the results of the cystoscopy are negative or the bladder is noted to be clear should be as follows:
ICD-10: D49.4 Neoplasm of unspecified behavior of bladder.
We have been helping urology groups prepare for the Oct. 1, 2015 switch to ICD-10 for diagnosis coding. We have audited many charts, looked at EHR templates, taught webinars and seminars to many urologists, and have more seminars scheduled. Of course, Physician Reimbursement Services is not the only group sounding the alarm on ICD-10 codes. Two of the common themes we see in advertising for ICD-10 training courses are the increased number of codes in ICD-10 and the increase in specificity the codes allow.
While this example does not cover all the nuances of coding for cancer in all organs or types of cancer, the general rules apply to other organs treated. We did not cover metastatic disease due to space; these scenarios are also governed similarly in both ICD-9 and ICD-10.
ICD-10 will be implemented. But do not panic. Take your time and learn the system correctly. Your future will depend on it.
Obviously, the codes themselves have changed, but the guidelines are identical . If all offices were to follow these guidelines and payers were restricting payment only to correctly diagnosed encounters, the following ICD-9 diagnoses would be reported (in appropriate order):
Consider as well that although ICD-10 has been used by the rest of the world for over a decade, the rest of the world does not use CPT for payment and does not use ICD coding to restrict or verify payment validity. In short, the data systems that are being used today to determine payment with ICD-9 in the U.S. will be the same data sets that will be used to determine payment using ICD-10, with the obvious use of crosswalks to ICD-10 codes.

A cystoscopy is a surgical procedure in which a tube with a small camera on the end (endoscope) is inserted into the bladder to examine the lumen of the bladder, urethra in men and women and the prostate in men. A related procedure, the urethroscopy, is done to examine the urethral lumen to look for urethral diseases or abnormalities. For the cystoscopy, the endoscope is inserted into the urethra which allows visualization of both the bladder and the urethra, thus the term cystourethroscopy. In addition to the camera, small instruments can also be passed through the endoscope that can be used to treat urinary problems. A diagnostic cystourethroscopy can be done as part of an evaluation of abnormal symptoms or laboratory findings. Cystourethroscopy can be performed with local anesthesia while the member is awake, but it can also be performed during or after pelvic surgery with regional or general anesthesia.
Cystourethroscopy, with ejaculatory duct catheterization, with or without irrigation, instillation, or duct radiography, exclusive of radiologic service. Cystourethroscopy, with fulguration (including cryosurgery or laser surgery) of trigone, bladder neck, prostatic fossa, urethra, or periurethral glands.
A related procedure, the urethroscopy , is done to examine the urethral lumen to look for urethral diseases or abnormalities. For the cystoscopy, the endoscope is inserted into the urethra which allows visualization of both the bladder and the urethra, thus the term cystourethroscopy.
Microscopic hematuria: Blood in the urine which is only visible by a microscope.
Suspected surgical urinary tract injury or foreign body (for example, injury to the ureter, incision into the bladder, intravesical placement or erosion of mesh or suture); or
Not Medically Necessary: Outpatient cystourethroscopy is considered not medically necessary for any other indication not listed above as medically necessary. Coding. The following codes for treatments and procedures applicable to this guideline are included below for informational purposes.
Inclusion or exclusion of a procedure, diagnosis or device code (s) does not constitute or imply member coverage or provider reimbursement policy. Please refer to the member's contract benefits in effect at the time of service to determine coverage or non-coverage of these services as it applies to an individual member.
The proper code for the surgical portion is Code 51610 (Injection procedure for retrograde urethrocystography), which includes injection of contrast material into the urethral meatus in a retrograde fashion to delineate the whole urethra and bladder radiologically.
78700 through 78740, this code range covers a several methods for obtaining diagnostic information about the kidneys and collecting system. Definitions of these CPT codes are quite simple.
Images can be obtained if there is any reflux of contrast medium present. Once voiding commences, catheter is removed and during voiding and post voiding images are obtained. This CPT code is used with surgical procedure cpt 51600. Cpt 74455 is used as supervision and interpretation code for cpt 51600.
Cystography is performed to study the lower urinary tract. It is used to evaluate different conditions like hydronephrosis, hematuria, bladder cancer, vesicoureteral reflux and bladder polyps. Using a urinary catheter, radiocontrast is instilled in the bladder, and X-ray imaging is performed.
In cystography, physician inserts a catheter in bladder and injects contrast medium to study urinary bladder. The images of the normal bladder as well as images during filling, voiding and post-voiding are also obtained. The flow of contrast helps in evaluating function of bladder. When the bladder is filled and then emptied, the function of bladder and lower urinary tract can be accessed.
Xray cystography includes minimum of three views radiological supervision and interpretation. The imaging portion of the procedure is reported with 74430. The radiologist usually wants films after the bladder has completely emptied because the residual volume may provide valuable information.
Scans are usually taken to identify the presence of incontinence immediately after you empty your bladder.
Cystoscopy (sis-TOS-kuh-pee) is a procedure that allows your doctor to examine the lining of your bladder and the tube that carries urine out of your body (urethra). A hollow tube (cystoscope) equipped with a lens is inserted into your urethra and slowly advanced into your bladder.
The Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code 52000 as maintained by American Medical Association, is a medical procedural code under the range - Endoscopy-Cystoscopy, Urethroscopy, Cystourethroscopy Procedures on the Bladder.
Both CPT and Medicare rules agree that 52000 (cystourethroscopy [separate procedure]) cannot take modifier -50 because it cannot be performed bilaterally. Other cystourethroscopy codes that neither Medicare nor CPT allows to be billed with modifier -50 include 52010, 52204-52285 and 52305-52318.
