3. The urologist performed a cystourethroscopy to remove two bladder tumors by fulguration. The tumors measured 1.7cm each. which code should be reported?
A. 52234. is the correct answer. This code indicates cystourethroscopy with fulguration with cryosurgery or laser surgery, resection of, small bladder tumor(s) measuring between 0.5cm to 2cm. So this code should be reported.
B. 52234-50. The modifier -50 represents the bilateral procedure. So this is the wrong answer.
C. 52234 x 2. This is not an existing coding format.
D. 52234-22. The modifier -22 is not recommended always. Sometimes the urologists mention modifier -22 in billing when more than one tumor has removed. But it is controversial. The CPT implies only one code for one or more tumors.
