Question
3
The patient is a very pleasant 72-year-old female noted to have bilateral nephrolithiasis. Her left stones were treated ureteroscopically and her right stone was very large. It was treated with an ureteroscopic procedure. She comes in today for her second ureteroscopic procedure to remove the remaining stone fragments. Right ureteroscopy, laser lithotripsy and right ureteral stent exchange were performed. What CPT® codes are reported for this service?
Explanation:
Rationale: Ureteroscopic procedures have no global period and the use of modifier 58 or 76 would not be appropriate. Though a stent exchange was performed, you do not report removal of the previous stent (52310). You would report the laser lithotripsy (52353) and stent insertion (52332) with no modifier(s) appended. In the Index, look up Lithotripsy/Ureter directing you to 52353. In the Index, look up Cystourethroscopy/Insertion/Indwelling Ureteral Stent directing you to 52332
Question
4
67-year-old gentleman with localized prostate cancer will be receiving brachytherapy treatment. Following calculation of the planned transrectal ultrasound, guidance was provided for percutaneous placement of 1-125 seeds into the prostate tissue. What CPT® code is reported for needle placement to insert the radioactive seeds into the prostate?
Explanation:
Rationale: Brachytherapy is a form of radiation in which radioactive seeds or pellets are implanted directly into the tissue being treated to deliver their dose of radiation in a direct fashion and longer period of time. The placement of the seeds is performed percutaneously (going through the skin by needle). The code is indexed under Prostate/Insertion/Needle guiding you to code 55875

This procedure is indexed under Laparoscopy/Removal/Leiomyomata referring you to codes 58545-58546. The diagnosis is indexed in the ICD-9-CM Index to Diseases, under Leiomyoma/uterus/intramural guiding you to code 218.1
