Bringing clarity to gray areas surrounding genitourinary studies

There's a lot of gray areas when it comes to coding for diagnostic and therapeutic genitourinary procedures — complex procedures with unclear documentation and subtle differences in code descriptions that leave a lot of room for coding errors. What's included, and what's not, in the bundled codes? When can multiple codes be reported? Unilateral vs. bilateral procedures? Stent placements, catheter exchanges, conversions and replacements? What's the difference between a stent and catheter in GU codes?

This two-hour session will be addressing these questions and more with detailed overviews of procedures and the CPT® codes that go with them. Using illustrations and case examples to point out key phrases in documentation, this in-depth instruction will ensure you arrive at the proper code. Benefit from Jeff's knowledge and experience, in addition to the questions and issues he regularly encounters, and come away with the tools to quickly and accurately arrive at the right code choices for genitourinary procedures.

  • GU procedures
