For an office visit for dysuria of an infant can we code 51701 for catheter and 81001 for the labwork? We received a denial saying it was bundled. We coded:
99213 - 25
51701
81001

Thanks!
 
Are you using a catheter just for a urine sample? I am currently researching if this code is correct or if P9612 is correct. Can you shed any light on that. As far as I know the clinic i work for has not had any issues getting paid for this.

Thank you.
